 derelict but valuable building on historic Perdita Street\, which is in ne
 ed of constant fixing. There&rsquo\;s only one problem&ndash\;Grandpa Andr
 ew owns the building and refuses to sell. Natalie adores her grandfather\;
  she&rsquo\;ll do whatever it takes to make his final years happy. Besides

 s contractor Peach Gallagher to do the necessary and ongoing repairs. His 
 young daughter\, Dorothy\, also becomes a regular at the store\, and she a
 nd Natalie begin reading together while Peach works.</p>\n<p>To Natalie&rs
 quo\;s surprise\, her sorrow begins to dissipate as her life becomes an un
 expected journey of new connections\, discoveries and revelations\, from u
 nearthing artifacts hidden in the bookshop&rsquo\;s walls\, to discovering
