AlbakiReads Editorial

A mystery that crosses into classic fiction

Rainy March’s work as a Book Witch depends on keeping a firm boundary between the real world and the stories she enters. That rule becomes harder to uphold when her grandfather disappears and a priceless book is stolen: the person she trusts to help is the fictional detective she has been forbidden to see. The investigation carries Rainy through the worlds of Alice in Wonderland, King Arthur, and other classics, linking a magical profession to a family mystery and the risks of becoming attached to a character who belongs on the page.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers who enjoy fantasy built around books and literary worlds.
  • Readers interested in mysteries involving family secrets and a stolen object.
  • Readers who enjoy stories about rules governing the boundary between fiction and reality.
