literature and fiction,mystery,mystery thriller and suspense, A Cracking of Spines, The men with him were experienced and apparently fearless but the huge library was silent and in total darkness and he was consumed with an unreasonable dread of the unknown, of the retribution that might lurk in the shadows. God how he could do with a cigarette to steady his nerves! They had made him leave the pack behind and it had seemed reasonable at the time. Now it seemed over-cautious. His eyes moved instinctively around the long shelf-lined room and suddenly he was conscious that it was not as silent as he had imagined....the highly polished, worn floorboards, the towering oak bookcases, crested with weird creatures and cherubs, even the leather-bound volumes in their neat military-style formations, seemed to be breathing...... Any petty crook, any illiterate youth, even a trained chimpanzee, could break into a library or an antiquarian bookshop, where security precautions were invariably something of a joke. The true skill lay in knowing what was worth taking and where it might be found.
