Hardcover by Wayne Warga

Not a great book if you're not already a confirmed fan of books, but an okay mystery dated just a tad by technological (Internet) changes in bookselling the past 20 years or so.

Hardcover by Wayne Warga

Easily the worst bibliomystery I've ever read. Head hopping, plot as predictable as a toaster. Frankly uninteresting and unmysterious.
