Description

Gulliver Fairborns novel, Nobodys Baby, changed Bernie Rhodenbarrs life. And now pretty Alice Cottrell, Fairborns one-time paramour, wants the bookselling, book-loving burglar to break into a room in New Yorks teeth-achingly charming Paddington Hotel and purloin some of the writers very personal letters before an unscrupulous agent can sell them. Heres an opportunity to use his unique talents in the service of the revered, famously reclusive author. But when Bernie gets there, the agent is dead . . . and Bernies wanted for murder. (He really hates when that happens!)

Perhaps its karmic payback; Bernie did help himself to a ruby necklace on his way out. (But it was lying there. And he is a burglar.) Now hes in even hotter water. And hell need to use every trick in the book—maybe going so far as to entice the hermitic Fairborn himself out of seclusion—to bring this increasingly twisted plot to a satisfying denouement.
