The library of Princeton University has been robbed! Francis Scott Fitzgerald’s priceless manuscripts have been stolen… The police and the FBI are at a dead end. Then a private detective agency—hired by an insurance company and specializing in locating stolen works of art—begins its own hunt for the thieves.
The trail of the missing manuscripts leads to a resort island off the coast of Florida—Camino—where the famous antiquarian and bibliophile Bruce Cabel lives, along with his circle of writer friends. That’s where the detectives send their “mole”: a budding writer, Mercer Mann.
But will she be able to identify the mysterious criminal—she who has never taken part in an investigation before?
