A Little Trickerie by Rosanna Pike is an instant Sunday Times bestseller that deftly blends dark humor with heartfelt storytelling. This captivating novel transports readers to Tudor England, weaving a bold and imaginative tale that is as striking as it is uplifting.

The story follows Tibb Ingleby, a resourceful vagabond raised by a mother who taught her how to navigate the harsh rules of society. After her mother's passing, Tibb embarks on a journey through medieval England's fields and forests, encountering a mix of allies, enemies, and those all too willing to believe in superstition. Together with new friends, Tibb devises a daring scheme — her greatest “trickerie” yet — that quickly spirals beyond their control, attracting both crowds and dangerous adversaries.

This novel shines with:

  • A richly detailed historical setting that immerses readers in the complexities and curiosities of Tudor life.
  • An unforgettable heroine whose wit, courage, and unorthodox spirit make her truly endearing.
  • Themes of kinship, belief, and resilience that resonate deeply across time.
  • Acclaim from notable authors including Ferdia Lennon, Bonnie Garmus, and Joanna Quinn, praising its originality and emotional depth.

A Little Trickerie is perfect for readers seeking a joyful, original, and vividly alive narrative. Rosanna Pike masterfully captures Tibb’s distinctive voice, delivering a story that is unapologetically itself—fun, lovable, and emotionally compelling.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
