The Nameless Detective is called upon to find out how rare books and maps are being stolen from an antiquarian bookshop with a faultless alarm system. He goes undercover in the store, only to be foiled when a theft occurs right under his nose.

Any additional comments?

The book is pretty good. Especially that it is FREE! It's a great story for a quick read, or a quick listen in this case. I wasn't able to pick up who the commits the crime so the ending was a good plot twist for me. Although, I personally think the ending was a bit too exaggerated but that's just me. Great listen....
