Homicide in Hardcover: A Bibliophile Mystery

Book expert Brooklyn Wainwright discovers that murder is always a bestseller in the first novel in the New York Times bestselling Bibliophile Mystery series.

Brooklyn Wainwright is a skilled surgeon. Sure, her patients might smell like mold and have spines made of leather, but no ailing book is going to die on her watch. The same canâ€™t be said of Abraham Karastovsky, Brooklynâ€™s friend and former employer.Â
Â
On the eve of a celebration for his latest book restoration, Brooklyn finds her mentor lying in a pool of his own blood. With his final breath Abraham leaves Brooklyn with a cryptic message, â€œRemember the Devil,â€ and gives her a pricelessâ€”and supposedly cursedâ€”copy of Goetheâ€™s Faust for safe-keeping.Â
Â
Brooklyn suddenly finds herself accused of murder and theft, thanks to Derek Stone, the humorlessâ€”and annoyingly attractiveâ€”British security officer who found her kneeling over the body. Now she has to read the clues left behind by her mentor if she is going to restore justice...
