490 1  An Emily Dickinson Mystery ;|v2 
520    "When a literary icon stays with the Dickinson family, 
       Emily and her housemaid Willa find themselves embroiled in
       a shocking murder in this new mystery from USA Today 
       bestselling and Agatha Award-winning author Amanda Flower.
       August 1856. The Dickinson family is comfortably settled 
       in their homestead on Main Street. Emily's brother, Austin
       Dickinson, and his new wife are delighted when famous 
       thinker and writer Ralph Waldo Emerson comes to Amherst to
       speak at a local literary society and decides he and his 
       young secretary, Luther Howard, will stay with the 
       newlyweds. Emily has been a longtime admirer of Emerson's 
       writing and is thrilled at the chance to meet her idol. 
       She is determined to impress him with her quick wit, and 
       if she can gather the courage, a poem. Willa Noble, the 
       second maid in the Dickinson home and Emily's friend, 
       encourages her to speak to the famous but stern man. But 
       his secretary, Luther, intrigues Willa more because of his
       clear fondness for the Dickinson sisters. Willa does not 
       know if Luther truly cares for one of the Dickinson girls 
       or if he just sees marrying one of them as a way to raise 
       himself up in society. After a few days in his company, 
       Willa starts to believe it's the latter. Miss Lavinia, 
       Emily's sister, appears to be enchanted by Luther; a fact 
       that bothers Emily greatly. However, Emily's fears are 
       squashed when Luther turns up dead in the Dickinson's 
       garden. It seems that he was poisoned. Emerson, aghast at 
       the death of his secretary, demands answers. Emily and 
       Willa set out to find them in order to save the Dickinson 
       family reputation and stop a cold-blooded fiend from 
       killing again"--|cProvided by publisher.
