Patience and Fortitude (the stone lions in front of the main NYPL) approve of this book.
A nice lazy whodunit involving NYPL curator of crime fiction Ray Ambler as he gets roped into continuing as an amateur sleuth following the sniper murder of a librarian/professor at a small local college. Things get so tangled in the secrets and lies that it is less of a surprise than it might be when Ambler himself is unexpectedly shot while traversing the quadrangle. I found it to be a good read on a very cloudy day.
I requested and received an EARC from Severn House via NetGalley. Thank you!

Don't see why this got published. Anemic mystery, iffy writing, and does not use library setting in any way that enhances the plot or embellishes the narrative.

Did start this but didn't get into it. I picked it up because I thought I'd learn about New York's famous library, which I've visited every time I go to New York. It's a place with presence. Not sure if this book promised the same quality.
