In Ismyre, on the eve of his lecture, the renowned botanist and master
dyer Professor Detlef is found dead in the university gardens.
As the local constabulary begin their search for the culprit, a strange
detective arrives from outside the city to help solve the crime. In a
place where things are never as they seem, will Mary the university
custodian be able to help the mysterious investigator uncover the
truth?
A new book in the quiet, fantastical Ismyre series drawn in pencil and
watercolor by Bristol-based creator B. Mure. Mure continues to expand
