A bookstore on the island

The ambitious and talented journalist Fricke's entire life is packed in boxes and suitcases—in a week, she'll be flying from Hamburg to Boston with the man she loves. But her editor-in-chief gives her one last assignment: to a small island in the North Sea and write an article about an eccentric ornithologist.

Spiekeroog amazes the journalist: cozy houses, endless dunes, no cars, no phone service, and the local bookstore owner knows even more about customers' tastes than they do themselves. The longer Fricke remains far from the mainland, the more she wonders: is happiness really waiting for her where she's been yearning for?

Julie Peters's novel is a captivating story of self-discovery, filled with the sound of the sea, the scent of books, and the sense of quiet happiness that comes only when you stop living on the run.
