The Sign of the Book

By: John Dunning

Narrated by: George Guidall

Ex-policeman and rare books dealer Cliff Janeway travels to remote Paradise , Colorado , where cops and crooks alike are as infernal as the weather. Janeway has agreed to help Laura Marshall, a friend of his bookstore partner, who's accused of murdering her husband.

While Janeway tries to gather the facts, he pulls long shifts standing watch over the Marshall home, filled with books signed by their celebrity authors. When a shifty pair of alleged book dealers turns up, and Janeway begins to suspect that Laura's son is hiding critical information, the case becomes a maze of clues and increasing danger.

Quintessential whodunnit

This is full of the twists and turns, ups and downs that make whodunnits so enjoyable. Initially I got it because I love most everything narrated by George Guidell . I was not familiar with the author. Now that I am, I’ll be looking for more titles by him.

This is a great mystery and a real,page turner

The five novels in the Cliff Janeway series are among the best ever written. They get better and better through the series.

The Complicated Character of Laura

I have listened to other books in the Cliff Janeway series. Cliff is an entertaining character who likes taking risks, has a sharp tongue, quick wit and sarcastic bent. The story moves at a steady pace and keeps the reader eager to listen to chapter after chapter without a break. George Guidall does an excellent job narrating the story. I was hooked from the first chapter.

Good story line

Most of the Bookman series have been good books. Nothing outstanding, just really good listens.

not the best

the first two in series was good . this was just words no heart.
