Synopsis
Assistant district attorney Alex Cooper and her crew are drawn into the strange and privileged world of rich collectors, eccentric library trustees, and the treasures of the great New York Public Library after a librarian disappears and a woman's corpse turns up in the missing librarian's abandoned apartment., When a preservationist in the rare books department of the New York Public Library is assaulted and then another woman in possession of a valuable book is found murdered, D.A. Alex Cross teams up with Detective Mike Chapman to investigate. The trail leads to a wealthy family of philanthropists and some precious documents--items perhaps even special enough to kill for. Linda Fairstein's LETHAL LEGACY is the rare mystery novel that balances a tight and suspenseful plot and quirky characters--all the trappings of the genre--with informative details about the history and workings of one of New York's most important institutions.
