Vivian Crewe has run the Pemberton Collection for eleven years without once asking where it came from.
Then a stranger leaves a pencil note on the back of a parking notice - one line, wondering who valued the founding gift - and the question will not leave her alone.
The deed names a firm that did not exist yet. The catalogue was made in eleven weeks by a twenty-six-year-old clerk, in a column he headed for the answer on his first morning and then could not fill - three thousand, seven hundred and seventy-three times out of three thousand, eight hundred and fourteen.
Somebody lent forty books to a rich man in 1908, and never saw them again.
What Vivian finds will reach into a reference work she wrote herself, into a firm that has never once been wrong, and into eighty-seven years of a story this college has told about its own founding gift. There is no body in this one. There does not need to be.
The Benefactor's Books is the tenth novel in The Calder College Mystery Society series.
