Former war crimes investigator Harold Middleton possesses a previously unknown score by Frederic Chopin. But he is unaware that, locked within its handwritten notes, lies a secret that now threatens the lives of thousands of Americans. As he races from Poland to America to uncover the mystery of the manuscript, Middleton will be accused of murder, pursued by federal agents, and targeted by assassins. But the greatest threat will come from a shadowy figure out of his past: the man known only as Faust. The Chopin Manuscript is a unique collaboration by 15 of the world's greatest thriller writers. Jeffery Deaver conceived the characters and set the plot in motion; the other authors each wrote a chapter in turn. Deaver then completed what he started, bringing The Chopin Manuscript to its explosive conclusion. 1967905 book 2007 Chopin Manuscript total:177|5:25|4:55|3:61|2:30|1:6| 177 594 267 51 3 0 false false Thu Jun 25 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Jun 25 04:01:56 -0700 2009 Thu Jun 25 04:03:13 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Jan 15 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sun Jan 11 18:57:13 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 15 20:54:45 -0800 2009 more...]]> 2 0 false false Tue Aug 04 17:40:59 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 04 17:54:25 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Wed Feb 25 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 23 14:34:36 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 26 02:49:51 -0800 2009

Read by Alfred Molina and with a new author every chapter - how much more squeeness can the literary world chuck at me on a humpday afternoon? I'll have to have it turned up loud to cover the clacking needles.

A romp in which a variety of mystery and/or thriller writers each wrote a part (sort of like a progressive dinner but a novel instead). Anyway, each author seemed to be trying to see how cleverly they could write themselves out of whatever predicaments the prior author...more...]]> 3 0 false false Wed Jan 07 12:09:49 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 07 12:09:49 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Mon Nov 12 19:18:38 -0800 2007 Tue Nov 13 14:38:25 -0800 2007 Audible.com produced this book in a serial form.
