Such a find could irrevocably alter the history of literature, as well as his career, and yet, he can''t know if the caller is legitimate or merely a student playing a prank.
Hallkyn soon finds himself on a mad dash through the twisting streets of Boston, scrambling to meet the caller''s demands. In a struggle for this unique historic artifact, Hallkyn must risk his life to save a work that may be doomed to disappear from history... this time for good.
