A most unusual death has landed Helma Zukas right in the middle of another murder scene. Stanley Plummer had been cataloguing a collection of Native American books for Bellehaven's new Cultural Center when his body was found in the Center's ladies room - stabbed through the heart, and clutching a Barbie doll. Miss Zukas is asked by the library to finish the cataloging. Now she's been asked by the victim - in a letter dated the day he died - to get to the bottom of the mystery.
