The Lost and Found Bookshop

by Susan Wiggs

Overview

"In the wake of a shocking tragedy, Natalie Harper inherits a financially strapped bookshop in San Francisco. She also becomes the caretaker for her grandfather Andrew. Grandpa Andrew has begun to struggle with memory loss, and Natalie plans to close the bookstore and sell the building to pay for his care. There's only one problem--her grandfather owns it outright and refuses to sell. To Natalie's surprise, her time of mourning becomes an unexpected journey of discoveries and revelations, from unearthing artifacts hidden in the bookshop's walls to uncovering the truth about her family, her future, and her own heart"--Back cover.
