A few times a year, after dark, a horse and carriage arrives outside the bookshop. A lady in black enters, the sign turns to CLOSED, and even the cat disappears inside.
A short while later, the Dowager leaves with a single book wrapped in brown paper and tied with string.
Elegant and mysterious, this one-of-a-kind bag is crocheted in deep black and copper tones, finished with vintage lace, an ornate cameo, pearl drop and antique-gold brass frame and the familiar 3 keys signature charm.
There are whispers that she is the landlord.
And that she meets the shopkeeper in secret.
No one knows what is in the book. And no one is brave enough to ask. 📚🕯️
