Summary
Magic exists where we cannot see.
It lives in unexplained phenomena, in attraction to strangers, in a pen and crimson inkwell, from a trunk, in a tent, at a fair, in the fog...
The Crimson Inkwell is a story about journalist Luella Winthrop. In her journey to become Dawnhurst-on-Severn's most acclaimed writer, she discovers that her city houses dark, magical secrets too uncomfortable to believe.
When an enigmatic carnival worker offers her a pen that can turn fiction to fact, she quickly learns that tampering with the unknown can be intoxicating, lucrative, and dangerous. Can she withstand the onslaught of enchanted consequences with her life and engagement intact?

That may not be entirely fair but it was clearly written by an American without reference to a single research source. It’s all over the place in terms of setting, era and detail. You might say that doesn’t matter because it’s a fantasy novel but I don’t think better writers in the genre would agree. Even the narrator seems fed up by the end has largely given up on a British accent which wasn’t terrible at the start.
