The story

Adapted from the upcoming major U&alibi series created by Mark GatissLondon, 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 is a warm-hearted and unexpected mystery, about books, murder and the secrets we all keep.
