Lily Transplanted - D. A. Spruzen

Lily's former life comes back to haunt her as she is thrust into a new mystery.

Rose, now remade as Lily Porter, answers an ad for a room to rent in the home of Hilda, an elderly British widow, telling her she is a widow recently arrived from Manitoba. Hilda and her best friend Magaly become fond of Lily, and-to her surprise-she of them.

Lily enjoys exploring Toronto and her new job in a bookstore, but her newfound peace is short-lived. A pedophile is abducting and killing little girls. When the child of a colleague is abducted, Lily knows she must act. Given Lily's background and proclivities, one almost feels sorry for the perpetrator.
