"Monument to the Dead" is the fourth book in the series, and in this one Nell Pratt notices the obituary of one of the elderly former board members of the Pennsylvania Antiquarian Society, Adeline Harrison. Nell is president of the Society and alwa..
"A KILLER CROP is Title #4 in Shelia Connolly’s Orchard Mystery series. I like reading about genealogy, house restoration and issues, local history, agriculture and orchard management.

It was such a great book, though, that I'm going to go back and read the first two installments. Connolly does a great job of capturing the cha..

When a warehouse filled with memorabilia and a rare fire engine from a Fireman's Museum is attacked and the watchman killed. Nell Pratt, the President of the Pennsylvanian Antiquarian Society is asked to talk with her pee..

He asked Nell to search them for any information of m on the museum on the various lines of his family. He promised to leave the Museum all his family archives if she is successful. Will Nell find the story in the stacks? I recommend this book. It a nice addi..
