Books like The forgers by Bradford Morrow


The rare‑book world is rocked when Adam Diehl, a reclusive collector, is found dead in his Montauk home, his hands severed and surrounded by highly valuable inscribed books and manuscripts. Adam’s sister Meghan and her lover, Will—who has a conviction for literary forgery—are left to grapple with the baffling murder and its impact on their lives. Will begins to receive threatening handwritten letters that appear to be penned by long‑dead authors, but are actually the work of someone who knows intimate details about Adam’s death and Will’s past. As the danger escalates, Will must confront his own history of forgery and attempt to forge a new beginning for himself and Meghan, all while the fragile world of rare books is forced to confront the lines between passion and morality.
