An irascible tycoon with a plan to build a string of great museums puts on display in the very first of these his sixteenth-century Italian Book of Hours, where it is stolen under entirely impossible circumstances.
Banacek's easy rationality is put to the test in a temperamental environment, which in Heffron's treatment bears a strong resemblance to Harper (and its predecessor, The Big Sleep).
The illuminated manuscript is a memory of the tycoon's late wife, who died in the getting of his illimitable fortune like Ebenezer Scrooge's mistress.
