Publisher's Synopsis
Jude found the rambling old bookshop when she visited last summer. Now, in the depths of winter, Lowell's store is a warm, safe place. Jude needs a bolt-hole, Lowell needs an assistant, and when an affordable rental is thrown in, life begins to look up. At least the gravedigger's cottage has quiet neighbours. But the bookshop is not the haven it seems to be. Lowell's past and Jude's present are a dangerous blend, and someone is coming to light the taper that could destroy everything.
