“Some books are magical, and in your second-hand bookshop, I think you sell more than books. You give away dreams.”
In late summer 1983, Jothan Andersson loses the love of his life, Lina Berglund, in a boat accident. He burns all his bridges and starts a new life as an antiquarian dealer and cafe owner. He is shy, which is why he prefers to converse with the characters of his favorite books, who seem alive to him.
However, William of Baskerville, Pippi Longstocking and Sherlock Holmes do more than console and distract him. They force Johan to make a choice: Does he want to start a new life, or is he going to do everything to find Lina again?
