This was an intriguing book. It is about a girl, Rosemary, who lives in Australia. Her mother dies, and a family friend buys a plane ticket for Rosemary so she can move to New York. In New York, she goes to work for an eccentric book store owner who constantly refers to himself in third person. All of the employees are a bit odd. When a lost manuscript supposedly surfaces, the whole book store erupts with suspecion and conspiracy. Rosemary has fallen in love with one of the employees, Oscar, but I will let the reader find out what happens in the story. I recommend this book for anyone who likes a good novel full of secrets and mystery.
