This time, however, the source of turmoil does not emanate from the benevolent Sulis Minerva, but rather from the discovery of a sorcerous map that leads the left-handed bookseller, Merlin, into a perilous predicament. Determined to save his beloved sister, the right-handed bookseller Vivien, and their friend, the art student Susan Arkshaw, who is still grappling with her own recently unveiled magical heritage, they embark on a desperate rescue mission. The map takes them to a secluded realm, meticulously maintained by deadly sorcery performed by an Ancient Sovereign and guarded by monstrous living statues of Purbeck marble. But this is merely the beginning of their treacherous journey, as the booksellers delve into centuries of disappearances and deaths, seeking to unravel the enigmatic secrets of the murderous Lady of Stone, a serial killer of extraordinary powers. If they fail to halt her relentless pursuit, she will unleash her wrath upon another victim, and this time, the target is not an ordinary mortal. A wintry return to the somewhat alternate 1980s England of The Left-Handed Booksellers of London, where magic, mystery, and danger intertwine, awaits the intrepid trio as they confront the ultimate challenge of their lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 572g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 163 x 242 x 34 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781399606301\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garth Nix","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44133514936570,"sku":"9781399606301","price":14.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1679659578574_book.jpg?v=1680102328","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-sinister-booksellers-of-bath-9781399606301","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
