Paige Darcy: Reluctant Detective

Paige Darcy, a librarian with a flawless cataloging system and a chronic allergy to chaos, finds an unexpected insert in a returned book—a blood-stained note with threats. Instead of handing it over to the police, she inadvertently launches her own investigation, applying her skills in systematization and knowledge of literary tropes. Her path leads through the world of local antique dealers, eccentric collectors, and suspicious book traders. The 2025 comedy-crime film turns Paige's quiet life into an absurd adventure, where every clue feels like a plot from a bad novel, and the prime suspect turns out to be her own boss, obsessed with rare editions.
