Denver cop-turned-bookseller Cliff Janeway has just paid a hefty sum to acquire a real gem - a signed first edition. But does he truly own the rare book. An elderly woman claims her grandfather traveled the American South with the author and the prized volume is rightfully hers, plus a missing library of material by the same author. Janeway sets out on a seemingly impossible search, retracing the author's travels through the history-rich cities of Baltimore and Charleston, where someone is willing to kill to keep the secrets of the past.
Living in Denver I really enjoyed this book. It was fun to say, "I know where that is. I've been to that place." Plus - it was a good mystery and historical fiction.
