La encuadernadora de Oxford

Oxford, 1901. Lilian Delaney, an apprentice bookbinder, feels trapped within the walls of her father's bookshop and the limitations of being a woman in a man's profession. When a burned book falls into her hands, she discovers beneath the binding a letter written fifty years earlier that speaks of love, fortune, and murder. Drawn in by the mystery, Lilian discovers that other books hold fragments of history. Obsessed, she sets out to find them, but she is not alone, and what began as curiosity soon becomes a dangerous game. Her journey takes her from London's eccentric booksellers to private libraries and forgotten archives, as she delves ever deeper into the heart of the secret. A. D. Bell weaves an evocative and perilous tale where historical intrigue, romance, and the art of bookbinding are placed at the service of a secret that could prove deadly.
