Gonna be honest, I'm a bit disappointed with this one..
The synopsis is super misleading imo. It makes it seem like the story is gonna take place in the library most of the time, but that's just not true. They're let out of the library halfway through the first chapter.
Also, the story of a woman getting murdered in the library is a red herring for the actual story, which is that the author of the library story is working with the police/fbi to get evidence and convict a serial killer. While it is a cool premise, and is done very well, I still feel betrayed enough by the synopsis that this meta plot doesn't really make up for it.
