Mystery Private Eye
After leaving behind the comforts and the shackles of a
prestigious law firm, a restless attorney makes ends meet in
mid-2000s Brooklyn by picking up odd jobs from a colorful
assortment of clients. When a mysterious woman named Anna
Reddick turns up at his apartment with ten thousand dollars
in cash and asks him to track down her missing husband
Newton, an antiquarian bookseller who she believes has been
pilfering rare true crime volumes from her collection, he
trusts it will be a quick and easy case. But when
the real Anna Reddick—a magnetic but
unpredictable literary prodigy—lands on his doorstep
with a few bones to pick, he finds himself out of his depth,
drawn into a series of deceptions involving Joseph Conrad
novels, unscrupulous booksellers, aspiring flâneurs,
and seedy real estate developers.
