Curious Books

One credit short of his degree, a burned out college kid cuts a deal with his adviser to write a paper about a day spent with the eccentric owner of a local used and rare bookstore. When Simon Purtier recommends specific stories after studying each customer with psychic intensity, It becomes clear that there may be a lot more to his encyclopedic knowledge of his literary inventory than meets the eye. And for Jessica Ramirez fans, Terry shares the biography he wrote to construct her character and build her novels. It's a backwards look at her early days on the force and some of the incidents that shape the fascinating cop she was destined to become.
