Murder in The Crossings has happened again. Myrtle Chitwood, the beloved school librarian, has been discovered dead under her collapsed bookcases. Myrtle's children Basil, Rosemary, and Marjoram are naturally upset about their mother's death, but it is not in the way everyone expects. They mislead and frustrate the authorities every chance they can.

Estate Attorney Ernest Enright has the duty of establishing a foundation for troubled high school children per Myrtle's will.  Father Nickolai Wenchenkowitz, or Father Nikki as everyone calls him, is the town's Episcopal priest. He has been Myrtle Chitwood's confessor for years. Hank Solley, the sheriff's hired help at the ranch and a longtime friend of Myrtle, knows more about the Chitwood's than anyone else in town. Baxter Bear, the adorable teenage charge of Father Nikki unknowingly stumbles across vital information in solving Myrtle's murder.

These people along with the usual gang of Buck, Deputy Toby, Jimmy, and Doc assist Sheriff Chris Winters and his detective wife, Kali, in finding Myrtle Chitwood's murder. All embark on an adventure of uncovering Myrtle skeletons. What they find are skeletons that were never meant to be revealed - but soon turn to be deadly.
