Dear Mystery solvers, Wow, I am amazed, the mystery book title has already been found. It is "Unwritten" by Charles Martin. Thanks to Shira from Saline Library. Jessica from T.A.

I appreciate the great help and the patron is super excited. Thank you so much for helping me providing amazing customer service. With the best wishes for a wonderful weekend, Sonja
