The Key in the Book

A cosy small-town mystery, a graded reader for adult learners of English at A2 ("false beginner").

Read the complete novel, plus the English Learning Guide, with exercises for every chapter.

Ben Ashby, an English bookseller, arrives in the small town of Larkin, Vermont, to look after an old bookshop. On his first day, a book falls from the top shelf. Someone has cut a hole in its pages, and inside the hole there is a small, rusty key.

What does it open? And who hid it there?
