nI took Treasure Island to church with me as a talisman. nWhat a lovely bible, Mrs. Tribly said. nIsnt it just? I replied, hoping she would not ask me to read a favorite verse aloud. nI do not believe the psalmist wrote, n Fifteen men on a dead mans chest, n Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum. nThe Year is 1883 and Emma M. Lion has returned to her London neighbourhood of St. Crispians. But Emmas plans for a charmed and studious life are sabotaged by her eccentric Cousin Archibald, her formidable Aunt Eugenia, and the slightly odd denizens of St. Crispians. n nEmma M. Lion offers up her Unselected Journals, however self-incriminating they may be, which comprise a series of volumes. Armed with wit and a sideways amusement, Emma documents the curious realities of her life at Lapis Lazuli House.n
