With a devious undertaking, a group of five pull off the almost perfect crime. They brazenly stole five hand written manuscripts by F.Scott Fitzgerald from the Princeton University Library's underground archives. Two are caught immediately due to one speck of blood, and the others try to flee to another country after hiding the manuscripts.
The story continues with the addition Mercer Mann, a "down on her luck" writer who the insurance company talked into spying on Bruce Cable, a suspect, but well respected, well loved owner of a bookstore on Camino Island, Florida. His collection of rare editions make his heart race just by talking about them..
I liked the way the plot progresses as Mercer becomes part of the writer community. The characters were likeable and a couple of writers were a hoot!
As for the ending, it was perfect!
