Editorial : Bernie Rhodenbarr, burglar with a heart of gold, returns for this 10th installment in a reliable series from the versatile and prolific Lawrence Block (70-plus books to date).

In this long-awaited new installment in the popular series, the legendary Grand Master brings back the intrepid Bernie in a delightfully suspenseful tale that will leave listeners clamoring for more.

Cameron uses a unique blend of first and third person to describe her experiences, thoughts, and converstations as she travels with a group through China and Tibet. Highly recommended for beginners..
