Camino Island by John Grisham

I am not a Grisham reader but Kirk suggested I might like this because it is a book about the black market buying and selling of rare books.  Five rare F. Scott Fitzgerald manuscripts disappear from the Princeton University Library.  The thieves and just about everyone else loose track of the books as they pass through various sketchy hands with big money.  The unnamed company hoping to return the books to the library approach a young novelist with serious writers block to help.  Mercer Mann has serious debt and a family connection to the small town on Camino Island.   The company believes Bruce Cable, quirky but successful owner of Bay Books, has the books.  They offer to payoff Mercer's debt in addition to a significant salary if she will use all her "skills" to get close to Bruce and find a way through his security systems to the books.  It was a relatively bloodless romp and a great ending - not the kind of serious thriller I imagine from Grisham.  You kind of wonder if he wasn't reading a good book while vacationing in a place like Camino Island and just got inspired.
