Long story short I've decided to take the spell mastery feat with my high level wizard (divination specialist, illusion/enchantment prohibited).
his int mod is currently +10, so my question for you all is this:
What spells would you suggest my wizard take to prepare for the eventuality that someone will be stealing his spellbook?
criteria
-any spell up to 9th level is fair game
.
current (in progress) list and reasoning:
-time stop (gives time to assess the situation and get out)
-greater teleport (get out of dodge and into the safe house)
-emergency force sphere (quick and easy defense in an emergency)
-overland flight (good for travel)
-mind blank (good for traveling unnoticed)
-plane shift (in case of being stranded on another plane)
-protection from elements (in case of being stranded on another plane)
-contingency (contingency)

Instead of taking Spell Mastery for the contingency of your spell book being lost, why don't you take the feat False Focus? Hear me out:
1. False Focus and then get multiple holy symbol tattoos worth 100 gold each.
2. Theoretically with False Focus you can cast Secret Chest without needing a replica chest (component worth 50 gold). If you don't need the component then you could argue you can just recall the chest with no restriction; it would also mean you have 0% chance of losing the component chest and the real chest.
3. Make a backup spell book with your most important spells in it. Put it in the component-less Secret Chest that you can recall at any time.
4. ???
5. Profit
Iffy rules wise, but I think my interpretation has some merit. Or your DM could laugh in your face if you suggested it. You know him better than I do :p

I was in a similar situation with an enchanter once.
Some of my choices were Charm Person, Suggestion, Disguise Self, Dimension Door, Nondetection, and Erase, for homebrew campaign-specific reasons. I did have Heighten Spell, just in case.
Also of note in my situation was that nobody in the group trusted one another.
