Grant, C.L. The Hour of the Oxrun Dead (New York: Doubleday, 1977) 182 p.

Natalie Windsor is an assistant librarian at the public library in the small New England town of Oxrun Station. Her co-workers include the young Miriam Burke and crotchety old Arlene Bains. The Library Director is an unpleasant alcoholic woman named Adriana Hall. Natalie notices that many books are disappearing from the religion sections, but Mrs. Hall refuses to consider it a problem. "we have to expect a certain amount of thievery to go on in any given year." (p. 50). The discovery of one special book hidden in the stack helps to solve this occult/romance mystery.
