Fifty-Two Years Overdue

Case 11 · Easy

No fines, no fuss and no questions asked: Gullhaven Library was holding its first amnesty day for long-lost books. Mrs. Dimmock, the borrower who returned the book everyone was talking about, became the toast of the town, since it was fifty-two years overdue. Biscuit was simply delighted that dogs were allowed. Mrs. Dimmock was found dead, with the ladder lying nearby. Whoever had the ladder did it.
