Review, 2027

The bookcase judders in place. Behind the books, something pings with a high, ringing note, and then the bookcase swings smoothly inwards, revealing a dark room beyond. A room where no room should be. The Lost Bookshop meets The Lamplighter's Bookshop in this dual-period love story full of warmth and mystery, set in a crumbling library rich with secrets and history. Behind the bookshelves lies their story . . . 2025. Annas Crawley accepts a job cataloguing old books in the crumbling library at Pearepoint Abbey, far away from Oxford and her best friend's boyfriend who she can't seem to pry out of her heart. But behind the dusty bookshelves, there is more than escape to be found. In a hidden room secrets lie in wait, echoes from the past that only Annas can see, about two extraordinary sisters, a love that transcends time, and Annas's own missing mother. 1820. After losing their parents, sisters Esme and Eleanor have inherited their family estate and are determined to live their unconventional lives to the fullest.
