Summary: Miranda Brooks grew up in the stacks of her eccentric uncle Billys bookstore, solving the inventive scavenger hunts he created just for her. On Mirandas twelfth birthday, Billy has a falling-out with her mother and disappears from Mirandas life. Sixteen years later she receives news that Billy has died and left her Prospero Books, which is teetering on bankruptcy-- and one final scavenger hunt. Home in Los Angeles, Miranda finds clues that Billy has hidden for her inside novels on the stores shelves, in locked drawers of his apartment upstairs, in the name of the store itself. She is drawn into a journey where she meets people whose stories reveal a history that Mirandas mother has kept hidden-- and the terrible secret that tore her family apart. -- adapted from publisher info.
