London, 1928. Lucy Darkwether has always made her own rules. After breaking off her engagement to pursue a degree in Ancient History, she”s now the proud owner of London”s newest bookshop.
So when a rival shop in Cecil Court is chosen to host an exhibition of Egyptian treasures, Lucy”s pride is stung – until the grand opening ends in a gruesome murder. Is this the revenge of a disgraced colleague? A private vendetta? Or a curse visited upon those who disturb the past?
Ignoring the Inspector”s warning to stay out of it, Lucy refuses to stick to the script. But murder isn”t a game – and what she uncovers will have consequences for them all . . .
”Some of my favourite ingredients in any novel: a bookshop setting, a redoubtable heroine and a found family of misfits – even without the zippy plot, this fresh modern take on the period detective story would be a treat. I want more!” CATRIONA McPHERSON
