San Francisco book-restoration expert Brooklyn Wainwright loves a good
book festival except when murder is the main event in this thrilling
new addition to the New York Times bestselling Bibliophile Mystery
series. Brooklyn is excited to be included in the Covington
Library’s first annual Mark Twain Festival. She’ll rebind a rare
first edition of The Prince and the Pauper before an enthusiastic
audience of book nerds—her favorite people. The festival is the
passion project of wealthy media mogul, book lover, and newspaper
owner Joseph Cabot, who considers himself Twain’s biggest fan.
Brooklyn’s hunky husband, Derek, and his security team once rescued
Joseph from a corporate kidnapping attempt. Now Derek and his agents
are charged with keeping Joseph and his beautiful young wife safe
during the festivities taking place all over town. The
centerpiece of the festival is a citywide contest based on The Prince
and the Pauper: one lucky look-alike will trade places with Joseph for
a few days—with access to all the money and power that Joseph
commands. Brooklyn and Derek worry that the contest might be
generating some dangerous attention. And when someone is mysteriously
poisoned right before Brooklyn’s eyes, she’s not convinced that
the victim was the intended target. Now she and Derek must frantically
chase clues and suspects through the streets of San Francisco before
another murder becomes front-page news. . . .
