Hugh Anthony Disward visits the estate of his inheritance after news of his grandfather’s untimely death. A notorious bibliophile, the old man left behind a library that’s out of this world. But who is that mysterious young girl?
Huey and Dalian are hired to appraise the Lilburn family’s library and soon discover that a string of murders surround the beautiful maiden of the estate, Estella. Could it be the curse of a Phantom Book?
A childhood friend tells Huey of a schoolteacher whose students have become knowledgeable beyond measure. Later, two suspicious men come to the Disward manor in search of a valuable book.
After finishing the second book in a trilogy, Dalian is desperate to read the last. Not only did the author die before writing it, he also wrote a letter to Disward pleading for help. They soon learn that Dalian is not the only die-hard fan of the series.
An old friend asks Huey for a Phantom Book, hoping to win the heart of a beguiling courtesan. But on the next full moon, they find that he’s far from being the only man after the beauty’s hand, or her life.
A man who calls himself a Libricide Officer arrives in a town shrouded in mystery. Along for the ride is his peculiar companion—a woman with a lock just like Dalian’s!
