The Prisoner in the Castle is Susan Elia MacNeal’s latest Maggie Hope mystery, with a plot that owes more than a little to Agatha Christie. Maggie has been posted to Killoch Castle, a lodge in the Hebrides. She is there along with other agents with knowledge too sensitive to leave in the field. When one by one, the guests begin to be murdered, Maggie must discover who the killer is if she is to survive. MacNeal’s latest is “darkly atmospheric and as beautifully woven as a clan tartan” (Lauren Willig).

A Message from the Nichols Library Board of Trustees
January 4, 2021
We are reviewing recommendations issued by the State of New Hampshire and “best practices” put forth by the State Library to ascertain how to best serve the public while providing a safe workplace for our employees. We are being careful and thoughtful as we move towards reopening our Library. Hopefully, this will happen in the near future on a limited basis. Your continuing patience and understanding is much appreciated.
We welcome hearing from you during these challenging times. Please feel free to email the Trustees at chlibtrustee@atlanticbbn.net or call the Library at 603-253-6950 with your ideas, comments and suggestions about reopening.
