About this listen

The Folger Shakespeare Library is the world's largest repository of Shakespeareana and English Renaissance books, manuscripts, and objects d'art. Nobody alive knows the library better than Special Police Officer Lt. Norman Blalock; he's been guarding it for 25 years. That's why he is the perfect candidate to pull off an inside job and heist from the library's underground bank vault a priceless artifact that can rock the foundation of English literature.

Critic reviews

"Quintin Peterson's writing is one of those wonderful surprises - startlingly literary yet still gripping genre fiction." (Austin S. Camacho, author of the best-selling the Hannibal Jones Mystery Series)
