The Missing Manuscript

4 min

A rare handwritten manuscript — a 200-year-old first edition — vanished from the Hargrove Public Library's rare books vault sometime between 9 AM and noon. Head librarian Donna Marsh discovered it missing at 12:05 PM and locked the building down. The vault requires a key-card swipe to enter, and the log shows exactly four people accessed it this morning.
