The Curious Case of The Marginalia Club (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798233009396)

Sherman Holmes has cultivated eccentricity into an art form. With his Victorian affectations, elaborate moustache, and consulting detective agency in the quiet village of Hamsley Black Cross, he's built a life solving the problems others overlook.

His partner John Garden provides the technological expertise and practical grounding that keeps their investigations on track. His mother Shirley keeps them both fed, organised, and pointed in the right direction. And Colin, the office cat, provides chaos at the most inopportune moments.

When a series of bizarre bookshop burglaries leads them to the Marginalia Club-a secret society of bibliophiles who hid something precious in the margins of worthless books-Holmes and Garden find themselves racing against a thief who has been searching for decades.

But some obsessions cost more than they're worth. And the truth, when it finally surfaces, will break more than one heart.

A cosy mystery about books, secrets, and the dangerous weight of inherited dreams.
