About the Book

Every book tells a story. Every heart hides a secret.

'An impressive debut, full of intrigue and heart' Hazel Gaynor

The Lost Bookshop meets The Lost Apothecary in a beguiling novel full of secrets…

In the shadowy aisles of the Lamplighter's Bookshop, secrets lie as thick as the dust…

When Evelyn Seaton answers an advertisement for an assistant at a forgotten bookshop in York, she is not the only one with something to hide.

There she meets the enigmatic and prickly William Morton, an aspiring writer keeping secrets of his own. But when the walls that Evelyn has built around herself start to crumble, there is only one person she can turn to.

As the layers are brushed away, can Evelyn and William find the courage to write the next chapter of their story?
