Behind the scenes Dido Doolittle is planning her strategy. How can she boost her bookshop before Malvolio Claxendell opens the new branch of Yifitsinprint Books in the old taxidermist’s emporium opposite.
By chance she meets her friend, Myfanwy Detroit,who is organising a weeklong celebration of the New Age, and is scouting around for venues. It is agreed that Sister Ada Sommos, the wise but confused clairvoyante, will conduct free tarot readings throughout the festival.
Dido also recruits her other friend, Hwybren Masterson, to serve tea and bara brith for the duration. Finally she unveils a range of children’s activities and special offers. All is now ready to meet Malvolio’s threat.
