Murdered Librarians: A Vigilante Story (Book 1)

Life as a bodyguard and chauffeur for the wealthy, renowned, and influential is perilous, even in the best circumstances. After suffering a life-altering injury while on the job, Janette finds herself with limited choices. Bound by a "for life" contract but unable to fulfill her duties, she decides to use her skills to vanish from her former life.

In her new role as a librarian, Janette discovers a surprising sense of fulfillment. The library offers her refuge; no one seems to mind her occasional limp or the cane she sometimes requires for support. Her expertise and knowledge are valued, not her past as a formidable protector. Surrounded by books, which she considers a woman’s best companion, Janette immerses herself in a world of stories and learning, far removed from the intensity of her previous profession.

However, tranquility is shattered when the best friend of her former employer is found murdered on the steps of her library. This shocking event threatens to unravel Janette’s carefully constructed new life. Old allegiances resurface, and long-held secrets loom large, potentially endangering her freedom or, conversely, providing an opportunity for liberation.

In a bid to uncover the truth behind the murder, Janette collaborates with her colleagues at the library. This partnership could shield her from the suspicions that may link her to the crime, but it also places her in a precarious situation. Should she tread too carelessly, she might come to learn just how far her ex-boss is willing to go to reclaim what he believes is rightfully his—her loyalty and her life.

The stakes are perilously high as Janette navigates the investigation while attempting to protect herself from the dark shadows of her past. Each clue reveals unexpected connections and raises more questions about the intricate web of power and betrayal that surrounds her ex-employer. Janette must confront the shadows of her former life to protect her newfound peace, making for a tense and suspenseful journey.

As she delves deeper into the investigation, Janette faces both external threats and her internal struggles with her past identity. The specter of her old life as a bodyguard looms over her, and the skills that once kept her safe now serve as a double-edged sword. If she wishes to find the killer and clear her name, she must harness the very abilities she sought to leave behind.

In the end, the path Janette chooses could lead to redemption or doom. The duality of her existence—once a protector, now a seeker of knowledge—creates a rich narrative filled with tension and intrigue. As the investigation unfolds, Janette learns that sometimes, in order to move forward, one must confront the realities of the past.

Ultimately, Janette's journey is one of self-discovery, resilience, and the unwavering pursuit of freedom. With every turn, she must question who she really is and what she is willing to sacrifice to reclaim her life. Life, it seems, is not just a matter of surviving; it is about embracing the complexities that make us human.
