To celebrate the upcoming release of RIPPED FROM
THE PAGES, New York Times bestselling author Kate
Carlisle is giving away a complete autographed set of
all of the Bibliophile Mysteries that have been
released in paperback so far. The prize package includes:
When book-restoration expert Brooklyn Wainwright
temporarily relocates to her parents’ place in Northern
California, she finds that wooden barrels aren’t the only
things buried in the wine caves of Sonoma…
Excited to explore the secrets of wine country, Brooklyn
attends an excavation of the caves hidden deep under her
parents’ commune—and the findings are explosive. A room is
unearthed, and it contains a treasure trove of artwork, rare
books, a chest of jewelry…and a perfectly mummified
body.
A closer examination of the murdered man’s possessions
reveals a valuable first edition of Jules Verne’s A Journey
to the Center of the Earth. Hidden in the book is a secret
map that unveils an even greater hoard of treasures brought
to California by French winemakers fleeing the Nazi invasion
with the commune leader’s grandfather, Anton, among
them.
As reporters and art appraisers flock to Sonoma to see the
precious bounty, questions begin to rise—did Anton hide
these items to protect them, or did he steal them for
himself? Who is the mysterious man left for dead inside the
cave? But not all crime is buried in the past. When a new
presence threatens the town’s peace, Brooklyn decides to do
a little excavating of her own and solve the mystery of the
treasure before anyone else is written off.…
