520    "With Martin Edwards as librarian and guide, delve into an
       irresistible stack of bibliomysteries, perfect for every 
       booklover and armchair sleuth, featuring much-loved Golden
       Age detectives Nigel Strangeways, Philip Trent, Detective 
       Chief Inspector Roderick Alleyn, and others. But readers 
       should be warned that the most riveting tales often 
       conceal the deadliest of secrets ... "If much of the 
       action is set in a bookshop or a library, it is a 
       bibliomystery, just as it is if a major character is a 
       bookseller or a librarian." -Otto Penzler A bookish puzzle
       threatens an eagerly awaited inheritance; a submission to 
       a publisher recounts a murder that seems increasingly to 
       be a work of nonfiction; an irate novelist puts a grisly 
       end to the source of his writer's block. There is no 
       better hiding place for clues-or red herrings-than inside 
       the pages of a book. But in this world of resentful ghost 
       writers, indiscreet playwrights, and unscrupulous book 
       collectors, literary prowess is often a prologue to 
       disaster"--|cProvided by publisher.
