Opaline runs away from her home to avoid an undesirable marriage. After some time in France learning about the business of dealing rare books, she finds herself the caretaker of a very unique store.
Years later, Martha escapes her abusive husband and finds herself the housekeeper living in a flat that isn't what it seems.
Henry is a scholar looking for a lost bookstore and a lost manuscript. Together, he and Martha unravel clue after clue about the bookshop's owner.
Told in parallel timelines, The Lost Bookshop is a story about the power a person holds to control their future.
It is a story of trust, love, and magic. I recommend it to anyone who likes reading about bookstores and/or magic.
