En el mundo de Thursday Next la literatura es como una religión. Tras recuperar la integridad de Jane Eyre y vencer al malvado Acheron Hades, los problemas continúan para la detective literaria Thursday Next: los cambios en el argumento de Jane Eyre hacen que Jurisficción la persiga por haber alterado un clásico. Thursday, ahora embarazada (de un esposo que ha sido «retrosustraído» y no existe...), se esconde en la Gran Biblioteca (un piso por cada letra del alfabeto), cuyo sótano más profundo es, precisamente, el Pozo de las Tramas Perdidas, el sorprendente lugar donde se crea toda la ficción.
