      Book Boyfriends mögen besser sein, aber sie sind mehr Ärger als sie wert sind. Nach dem Verlust meines Traumjobs in der Modebranche kehre ich in mein Heimatdorf zurück und beginne im Nevermore Bookshop zu arbeiten, in der Hoffnung auf eine ruhige Zeit, um mein Leben wieder in den Griff zu bekommen. Doch dieser Buchladen ist alles andere als gewöhnlich. Ein mysteriöser Fluch erweckt berüchtigte Schurken der klassischen Literatur zum Leben. In meinem "einfachen" Job muss ich Kunden vor einem 1,90 m großen, mürrischen Heathcliff retten, mit dem raffinierten Moriarty Tee trinken und der Polizei entkommen, während ich mit Edgar Allen Poes schüchternem Rabenwandler Quoth Kunst erschaffe. Plötzlich taucht meine ehemalige beste Freundin mit einem Messer im Rücken auf, und ich werde zur Hauptverdächtigen. Um meinen Namen reinzuwaschen, muss ich mich an Agatha Christie halten. Und diese drei fiktiven Bösewichte? Sie teilen gerne ... Die Geheimnisse des Nevermore Bookshops sind das, was passiert, wenn all deine Book Boyfriends zum Leben erwachen. Begleite einen grüblerischen Antihelden, einen Meisterverbrecher, einen frechen Raben und eine Heldin mit einem großen Herzen (und einer noch größeren Büchersammlung) in dieser pikanten Cozy-Fantasy-Serie von USA Today-Bestsellerautorin Steffanie Holmes.
