The bookshop of secrets
(Adult Book)

Hope Sparrow mastered the art of outrunning her tragic past: She never stays anywhere too long, and will never allow anyone control over her life again. Coming to Wanishin Falls in search of her family's history already feels too risky. But somewhere in the bookshop's stacks are the books that hold Hope's last ties to her late mother-- and to a rumored family treasure that could help her start over. The shop is in shambles, and the owner is in the beginning stages of dementia, so Hope must stay and accept help from the townsfolk to locate the treasured volumes. But the longer she stays in the quaint town, the more people find their way into the cracks in her heart. And letting them in may be the greatest risk of all. -- adapted from back cover.
