Mystery
Like many other used booksellers, Delhi Laine, proprietor of
Secondhand Prose, dreams of making the Great Find if not a
Shakespearean Folio, then at least a fragment of an Emily
Dickinson or Edgar Allan Poe manuscript. But after receiving
a very rare and valuable children's book into her
collection, she finds out such treasures can come at a
terrible cost the suspicious death of one colleague and
another left for dead days later. Her investigation into the
true owner of the book reveals that those around her are not
what they seem, as she is drawn into a world of deception,
backroom dealings, and forgery. Despite the dangers, Delhi is determined to protect the
treasure while coping with avaricious booksellers, her
estranged famous-poet husband, and whoever is behind the
attack who now has her in their sights.
