Sol Brenner has spent fifty years selling books, and rather longer learning where they go afterward. At seventy-three, he thought he had seen every kind of forgery the trade produces.
Then a three-thousand-dollar book about turnips crosses his desk with a hundred-and-eighteen-year provenance that never once hesitates - no gaps, no guesses, nothing a cataloguer wasn't perfectly sure of. An honest history is full of small honest doubts. This one has none.
Something is wrong with it.
What Sol and the Brandt Reading Room's ensemble uncover reaches back to a locked room above a dead mill town, where a subscription library built by working men - a penny a week, a mark punched through every book so it could never be sold - was emptied a double handful at a time by a thief patient enough to take twenty years over it. What they're up against is a man who has spent three decades laundering stolen books through the one silence no one thought to check.
The Clean Provenance is the sixth novel in The Calder College Mystery Society series.
