The premise
Is librarian Roe the best sleuth in Real Murders Club? When Jane, a member of the club dies, Roe inherits her house, a skull hidden inside, and a mystery to solve.
How unusual is it?
Honestly? Not very — and that's the charm. It plays the hits, which is exactly the point for a cozy night in.

Why we’d put this one on
Candace Cameron Bure is Roe, a small-town librarian who would rather solve crimes than shelve books, and this one drops a real puzzle in her lap. When a fellow member of her Real Murders Club dies, Roe inherits the woman's house, plus a skull hidden inside it and a mystery she did not ask for. Marilu Henner plays her mother Aida and Peter Benson is the local detective, so the cozy-sleuth chemistry is all here. At a 6.6 it is exactly what the Aurora Teagarden faithful want: a clever, gentle whodunit. I will not breathe a word about the skull's owner. Guess along.
