The Burglar Who Counted the Spoons by Lawrence Block

The Burglar Who Counted the Spoons by Lawrence Block, 252 pages

This latest addition to the Bernie Rhodenbarr series finds my favorite used book store owner/cat burglar up to his usual tactics. Bernie enjoys liberating rare items from their wealthy owners. In this episode Bernie's new client collects all things "buttons" - famous manuscripts, paintings, and now a silver spoon featuring a Declaration of Independence signer.

Full of twists and turns, even I was surprised at this ending to this story.
