The Collectors by David Baldacci, 436 pages.
My dad gave me this for Christmas 3 years ago, and it never made it more than half-way up my to-read pile. I picked it up after New Years, and it hooked me straight away. A murder-mystery, con-artists, two plots that end up twisting together - and it's partially set in the Rare Books Division of a library.
It's very much a stand-alone book, but it is the second in a series - and i think i would have understood more about the characters if I had that background. There will definitely be some more Baldacci on my reading list this year.
