From Evie Woods comes a magical and heartfelt novel about lost stories, second chances, and the quiet power of books to change a life.

On a quiet street in Dublin, a mysterious bookshop is waiting to be found.

In the 1920s, Opaline Carlisle refuses to live the life chosen for her. Escaping the expectations of her family, she follows her love of books through London, Paris, and Dublin, carving out an independent path in a world determined to limit her.

In the present day, Martha is trying to rebuild her life after leaving behind a painful past. When she takes a job as a housekeeper for an eccentric woman in Dublin, she begins to sense that there is more to the house, and its hidden history, than she first realised.

Meanwhile, Henry, a scholar searching for a lost manuscript and a vanishing bookshop, is drawn into the same mystery. As their stories begin to connect, Opaline, Martha, and Henry each discover that some places, and some books, appear only when they are needed most.

Warm, mysterious, and beautifully bookish, The Lost Bookshop explores courage, healing, independence, and the magic of finding yourself through stories.
