Nero Wolfe Award winner John Dunning writes compelling mysteries starring fan-favorite ex-cop turned antique bookseller, Cliff Janeway. Cliff is excited when he buys a signed first edition of a travelogue written by world famous explorer Richard Burton. Soon, he is confronted by a woman on her deathbed who claims that the book rightfully belongs to her and is part of a much larger library stolen years ago. He vows to find the truth, but his search is fraught with danger as a murderer is intent on stopping him.
