You’d be forgiven for assuming all mystery/suspense set in a library was going to be cozy, but in this case you would be extremely wrong. This tale of former nurse/library worker/serial killer is chilling and ominous, but firmly grounded in the mundane details of life. Sharing a similar tone to My Sister the Serial Killer, but in a very different setting, How Can I Help You is likely to leave you unsettled, in a (mostly) good way.
