- Synopsis
- With his hated father dead, a man&’s life takes a dangerous turn. He doesn&’t cry when his father, Frank, dies. The old man was an abusive, self-absorbed drunk, and when cancer takes him to his deathbed, his son is there to watch. At Frank&’s final moment he leans over and whispers in his ear, letting the dying man know that he&’s glad to see him go. His only inheritance is a heavy, leather-bound book. He has never seen it before, and has trouble believing that his brutal, ignorant father ever touched something so beautiful. But the volume is well-thumbed, full of aphorisms and advice written in the dead man&’s hand. Soon after he reads it, the son finds his life spiraling out of control. If he doesn&’t want to follow Daddy to the grave, he had best heed the lessons of the book.The Bibliomysteries are a series of short tales about deadly books, by top mystery authors.
