A Truely Mobile Bookshop

Help bring a cozy, curious bookshop on wheels to life.

Sleuth Society Books is a pop-up mobile bookstore dedicated to mysteries and thrillers—classic whodunits, modern crime, cozy reads, and curious stories—soon to be housed inside a thoughtfully converted bookshop on wheels.

We're building a bookshop that shows up where you don’t expect it: markets, festivals, community events, and quiet corners that could use a little more intrigue.

This page is how you can help launch it.

What Is Sleuth Society Books?

Imagine stepping onto a truck lined with bookshelves, warm wood, and soft light.
A place to browse slowly.
A place to discover a story you didn’t know you were looking for.

No algorithms. No rush. Just good books.

Why We're Crowdfunding

Launching a mobile bookshop takes more than love of books—it takes a safe, functional build.

Funds raised will go toward:

  • Converting the blank page into a secure, weather-tight shop
  • Custom shelving and displays
  • Expanding initial inventory
  • Permits, insurance, and launch costs

This first round of support gets the shop built and on the road.
