A book lover’s lust for acquisition drives him to murder in this short tale from the New York Times–bestselling author of Beautiful Days.

Identified only by the hastily—and clumsily—chosen alias Charles Brockden, the narrator of this story finds a bookstore that instantly piques his desire. He must call it his own; he must add it to his already-extensive collection of bookstores. But surely the owner of such a fine shop wouldn’t easily part with it. Brockden forms a plan to acquire the store in such a way that no one would ever suspect foul play: untraceable murder. And he knows he will be successful—because he has done it before.

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