Book description
Meet Thursday Next, literary detective without equal, fear or boyfriend.
There is another 1985, where London's criminal gangs have moved into
the lucrative literary market, and Thursday Next is on the trail of
the new crime wave's MR Big.
Acheron Hades has been kidnapping certain characters from works of
fiction and holding them to ransom. Jane Eyre is gone. Missing.
Thursday sets out to find a way into the book to repair the damage.
But solving crimes against literature isn't easy when you also have to
find time to halt the Crimean War, persuade the man you love to marry
you, and figure out who really wrote Shakespeare's plays.
Perhaps today just isn't going to be Thursday's day. Join her on a
truly breathtaking adventure, and find out for yourself. Fiction will
never be the same again ...
