The Well of Lost Plots (Thursday Next #3)

The Well of Lost Plots is Jasper Fforde's third Thursday Next book.

Thursday decides that for her safety she should hide out for a while. The safest place she can hide is in fiction. Out of all of the book in the Great Library, Thursday decides to hide in the Well of Lost Plots, the books that have not yet been published.

Her world for the next year or so will be in Caversham Heights a detective story that has little hope of being published. Through the Character Exchange Program, Thursday takes the place of Mary Jones, a police officer. Her life within fiction will be quite different than it was in the "outland."

Along with everything else going on in the crazy Well, the book world is about to introduce a book upgrade. Not since the upgrade from SCROLL to BOOK, has there been a change like this.
