1. General Murder by the Book! TWE
  So, you thought the Library was a safe and quiet place filled with books and information? WRONG!!
A dastardly crime has been committed and it needs some detectives to follow the clues and solve the crime. Come to the Library to find out more. The 'scene' will be set up until end of Tuesday 28th May, so plenty of time. For the cleverest of Detectives - this means the one who not only correctly identifies who did it, but who reasons best how they did it, why they did it and who didn't do it, there will be a delicious prize.

It will be a gathering for those who like to read, where we talk about books - the good ones or even the bad. With chocolate biscuits, cos why else would it be called this?!
