The bookstore is haunted by the ghost of a former owner, the widow of the original owner, who died in the store.
The plot revolves around the mysterious disappearance of a valuable book from the store, and the subsequent investigation by Mifflin and Gilbert. Along the way, they encounter a cast of eccentric characters, including a wealthy businessman, a young poet, and a beautiful and mysterious woman.
The novel is known for its witty dialogue, charming characters, and its celebration of the joys of reading and bookselling. It is also a fascinating glimpse into early 20th-century Brooklyn and the world of bookselling.
