Hilary Mantel, the twice Booker Prize-winning author of the Wolf Hall trilogy (now a popular television series), presents a masterful work of historical fiction. This epic novel delves into the tumultuous world of the French Revolution, bringing to life its key players with astounding imagination and detail.

Meet the vibrant cast of characters: Georges-Jacques Danton, a passionate and indebted revolutionary; Maximilien Robespierre, a diminutive yet meticulous man wary of bloodshed; and Camille Desmoulins, a captivating orator whose brilliance is matched only by his unpredictability. As these young firebrands savour the intoxicating allure of influence, they unwittingly unleash the revolution's darker forces, hurtling towards a terrifying climax that will test their ideals and their very souls.

In 'A Place of Greater Safety', Mantel weaves a spellbinding tapestry of ambition, ideology, and human frailty, inviting readers to witness history unfold through the eyes of those who shaped it. Prepare to be transported to a world where the promise of liberty carries a hefty price, and the path to a new order is paved with both dreams and nightmares.

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.’
