'A delicious read' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ READER REVIEW

London, 1946. Gabriel Book is an erudite and unconventional London bookseller married to Trottie, the owner of the wallpaper shop next door. He is also a sleuth who uses the chaotic riches of his stock to crack the puzzling cases that come his way.

He does not work alone. Book's shop is a magnet for waifs and strays - some of whom bring mysteries of their own to his door. There's Nora, sometime bookseller and true crime enthusiast; Dog, connoisseur of ginger biscuits and then Jack, whose arrival at the shop forces Book to confront a loose end from his own past.

Clever, endearing and entertaining, Bookish is a warm-hearted and unexpected mystery, about books, murder and the secrets we all keep.©2025 Eagle Eye Drama Limited 20. Jahrhundert Belletristik Historische Krimis Historische Romane Krimis Mit Videospiel-, Film- & Fernsehbezug

Kritikerstimmen

A whimsical account both of postwar London and of the world of bookshops. A kind book with considerable wit. Highly readable. Clever in the best of senses
Beautifully crafted . . . Sweet evokes the world of 1946 London so well

Mark Gatiss' is the perfect narrator for this. (I mean, he would be, obviously, but that doesn't make it any less enjoyable.) More, please!

Not long enough :-)

These are somehow quiet, contemplative stories that evoke life in post-war London, built around original murder cases. People struggling to build a new life and make the best of it. Very nicely (it seems) adapted from the TV series created by Mark Gatiss and here read absolutely brilliantly by him. One could even listen to the end credits forever. I can’t wait to finally watch the series in Germany.
