Concentrating on her search instead of letting her mind wander, she found the book fairly quickly. It was one of the few really old volumes on the shelf; if Dan had cared as much for books as for jewels, it would have been in a glass case or at least sealed in inert plastic instead of being jammed into a shelf so full she had to remove several other books in order to extract it. Bound in crumbling brown leather stamped with gold, it had the title Catalogue of the Jewels and Precious Works of Art in the Collection of H.R.H. the Maharajah of Mogara. The maharajah's title was twice the size of the other words; underneath, letters of extremely modest size read, "as depicted and described by Mr. William Cuthbert Bennett, FRAI."

Meg didn't have to open the book to know she had found what she was looking for. She paused for a moment to puzzle over the letters following the artist's name. Fellow of the Royal Academy of India? Was there such a thing? She had never heard of it, which proved nothing. Possibly it had been mere "swank" on the part of an itinerant and exiled Englishman.
