“Project Bookstore” is the alias of my adult contemporary fantasy novel set in Philadelphia. It takes elements of magic and folklore and weaves it into the life of Nic Whitlock, the keeper of a magical bookstore. Among all the changing rooms, hidden doors, and locked boxes, there are an untold number of secrets Nic has just begun to unravel. Among them is the mysterious Edmund, who stumbles into her life to warn her about a man hunting the bookkeepers and their bookstores.

I imagine this book as The Spiderwick Chronicles meets The Night Circus meets A Monster Calls.
