My Frightening Story

A woman in a long dark coat came into my library. She was clutching something rectangular in a canvas bag. She looked around the room furtively. She looked at me. After several moments of watching and looking around the library anxiously, she began to move toward me. If anyone approached me, she would stop and wait, pretending to look at magazines or displays. As she got closer I could feel my heart beginning to pound louder and louder.

She slipped her hand into the bag and whipped something out of it and pointed it at me. I gasped

She said, "I just finished this book and I loved it. I want another just like it. Can you help me?"

WHAT do I do?????
