The Bell & Book 2

Where the dead come to read.

Lenora Bell has spent eleven years trying to forget her mysterious great-aunt.

Then, three days after the funeral, a letter arrives.

Inside is an inheritance she never expected: an old bookshop in the remote village of Bellwick, along with three unsettling instructions:

Keep the shop open.

Do not sell it.

And never close the doors after midnight.

Lenora arrives expecting dusty shelves, old books, and a forgotten family business.

Instead, she finds a cup of freshly made tea in an apparently abandoned shop, a mysterious undertaker named Rowan Blackwood, and a strange book that seems to know things no book should know.

Then, at midnight, someone knocks from inside the shop.

The visitor is Professor Elias Wren.

He has been dead for twenty-three years.

And he believes he was murdered.

As Lenora investigates Wren's death, she discovers that the Bell & Book is far more than an old bookstore. For generations, her family has guarded a mysterious boundary between the living and the dead-and someone is determined to break it.

Then the secrets begin to surface.

Her mother's ghost returns with a warning.

A hidden book begins recording events that have not yet happened.

A missing page may hold the truth about a decades-old murder.

And somewhere beneath Bellwick, something has been waiting for the Bell family to return.

Now Lenora must uncover what happened twenty-three years ago before another death is written into the Bell & Book.

Because in Bellwick, the dead have memories.

The books remember them.

And some secrets refuse to stay buried.

THE BELL & BOOK is Book One of The Bell & Book Mysteries, an atmospheric paranormal mystery series filled with ghosts, secret histories, family secrets, mysterious books, impossible murders, and a village where the past is never truly dead.
