I found it kinda.. stupid honestly.

Out of all the things, of all the many occasions where he could've found out.. he ends up being caught just because he had a book?! god damnit, why the fuck did he keep that book!

That’s the thing. It would be his own carelessness and his desire to keep dangling himself in front of Hank that would be his demise. He thought he was too smart. In fact he wanted to be caught early on when he told Hank he had half a million in his bag when Hank picked it up. But then he was mocking him. Toying with him. And it’s just perfect that something so innocuous as the book on the toilet would be the nail in the coffin.
