John Dunning

The Bookseller's Promise is the third book in the Cliff Janeway series by the award-winning John Dunning, an unusually talented and unique American writer.

After buying a signed first edition of Pilgrimage to Mecca and Medina by the master of pen and adventure, the linguist Richard Francis Burton at an auction of a respected and renowned Boston house, Cliff Janeway will not be surprised when ninety-year-old Josephine Gallant appears in his rare book store and declares that is the true owner of his treasure - she.

Her grandfather, a faithful companion of Burton's, was in possession of Burton's complete collection, but shortly after his death the collection mysteriously disappeared. Having found an ally in Janeway, Mrs. Gallant will ask him to return her missing family treasure, but soon after, she too disappears. Janeway's search will lead him to a scruffy little Baltimore bookstore, a writer with a murky past, and a gang of robbers who are apparently looking for the same literary gem, but when his friend is also killed during the investigation, it will become clear that someone is willing to do anything to keep the secrets of the past forever. hidden.
