Description:

An ancient scroll draws a bookseller into a chilling mystery.
Monty Danforth finds the tin buried beneath a shipment of leather-bound classics. Inside is a millennia-old vellum manuscript written in an unfamiliar but unmistakably ancient language. Danforth tries to photocopy and photograph it, but he ends up with blank images, as though the ink were made of something impervious to modern technology. As the scroll’s mystery enchants him, this hapless bookseller falls into a cutthroat conspiracy that he may never escape. Soon a dead-eyed old man and his granddaughter come calling for the scroll. Danforth refuses to sell them the manuscript, but they will not be the last to demand it. Powerful forces crave the secrets locked within this ancient document, and Danforth will survive only if he can master its power.

The Bibliomysteries are a series of short tales about deadly books, by top mystery authors. **

Review

“[Anne Perry] has no peer.” — Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine   “Perry makes deft use of history to cast additional light on modern-day issues.” — Publishers Weekly   “Typical Anne Perry—just when you think you have it figured out, think again! . . . Her novels take you deeper than just the mystery at hand, to probe the characters’ reactions and the frailties of human nature.”  — Mostly Murder
