Description


Adapted from the major television series created by Mark Gatiss – out now!


London, 1946. Gabriel Book is an erudite and unconventional London bookseller married to Trottie, the owner of the wallpaper shop next door. He is also a sleuth who uses the chaotic riches of his stock to crack the puzzling cases that come his way.


He does not work alone. Book’s shop is a magnet for waifs and strays – some of whom bring mysteries of their own to his door. There’s Nora, sometime bookseller and true crime enthusiast; Dog, connoisseur of ginger biscuits and then Jack, whose arrival at the shop forces Book to confront a loose end from his own past.


Clever, endearing and entertaining, Bookish by Matthew Sweet is a warm-hearted and unexpected mystery, about books, murder and the secrets we all keep.


Follow the trail of the investigation in Matthew's brilliant adaptation.


Matthew meets Jack at Gurkha's in Sydenham, South London.
