Review: The sequel to the popular, Booked to Die. Cliff Janeway, Denver cop-turned-book-dealer, finds himself chasing down a charming young fugitive named Eleanor Rigby, who has stolen a rare copy of Poe’s, The Raven for reasons of her own. Trouble follows, and Eleanor disappears into a city filled with people who want the book, and don’t care what they have to do to get it. Stuffed with fascinating book lore, this mystery is a bibliophile’s dream.
