About this ebook
Luke Taylor was searching for his missing twin brother when he discovered a new purpose on a magical tidal island. Living in a quirky bookshop is a dream come true - he just didn’t expect it to be so damn dangerous.
Running a business on a tiny island was always going to bring challenges, but Luke didn’t bargain on strange customers, hexed books, or a sentient shop that seems to have its own ideas about how things ought to be done.
Not to mention his deepening feelings for the island’s resident witch...
Esme Gray became the island’s Ward Witch seven years ago and has built a life of safety and quiet for herself. A balm for her abusive past.
Her feelings for the new Book Keeper have disturbed those calm waters, and when his life is threatened, she doesn’t hesitate to dive in to help. But is she strong enough to pull them both out alive?
The Book Keeper is the second book in the Unholy Island series. Drift away with this Cosy Fantasy today!
*The Unholy Island series is set in the same world as the urban fantasy mystery books, Crow Investigations, but it can be enjoyed independently.

About the author
Sarah is a bestselling author of contemporary fantasy and magical realism. She writes the Crow Investigations series, a London-set urban fantasy featuring private investigator Lydia Crow.
The first book of the Unholy Island series, The Ward Witch, is set in the same world as the Crow books, but with new setting and characters.
She has also written ‘book club’ fiction with atmospheric settings and historical elements and non-fiction for authors (yes, she finds it hard to stick to one genre!).
Having always been a reader and a daydreamer, she now puts those skills to good use with a strict daily schedule of faffing, thinking, reading, napping and writing – as well as thanking her lucky stars for her good fortune.
Sarah lives in rural Scotland with her husband and extensive notebook collection.
