Dear Librarian,
There's nothing quite like the pleasure of a good book, is there? But Margaret Lea, the heroine of my novel THE THIRTEENTH TALE, takes her love of reading to extremes. In the refuge of her father's bookshop she avoids family difficulties by plunging into her beloved books.
Until one day a letter arrives. The letter leads to an encounter with Miss Vida Winter, England's best-loved living writer. But what does she want with Margaret?
Margaret finds herself investigating a mystery that is every bit as compelling as the books she loves. There are twins, an unexplained fire, a governess, and a haunted house. Miss Winter is ailing, time is running outand only Margaret can solve the mystery of the Thirteenth Tale...
THE THIRTEENTH TALE is a book about books and the love of reading, and is perfect for any book groups that might be meeting in your library. I hope your readers will enjoy itand you too! And please visit www.thethirteenthtale.com for more information, a readers guide, and to chat with other readers.
