It's a map. It shows a location. It is hand drawn and coloured in by coloured pencil. It looks like a child (or an idiot drew it). That's not going to help you though. I guess it's part of a puzzle that looking at the other page might help you solve.

An open book. On the left is a map of... somewhere. On the right seems to be some sort of puzzle that needs solving.

Yup, it's a clue of some sort. In this case, it is a poem:

"A Stone's throw betwixt Gibraltar and California, you need to start near
In the days of domes -- a pepper seller -- one of 162 lived here
Third in line toward the setting sun something there did sit
What writ in plain old English is carved right there up on it?"

Work that out and refer to the map and maybe... maybe, you can solve it. — Yup, it's a clue of some sort.

I scored this rad #hardcover #book for free, today 😀

Poison Flowers & Pandemonium - A #RichardSala #Omnibus. It's a collection of his last four books in one gorgeous hardcover. It was published & released just months before his death in May 2020.

I'm looking forward to diving into this book, tonight, after work. It was a fantastic free find👍

The cover of "The God Game," a novel by Danny Tobey, with text highlighted by pixelated color overlays. The title, "The God Game," appears in large, holographic letters. The author's name, "Danny Tobey," and the subtitle "A Novel" are below the title. A quote by Harlan Coben: "MART, PROPULSIVE, AND GRIPPING." is at the bottom of the cover. A library sticker is in the upper middle of the book.

Book cover for "Midnight at Marble Arch" by Anne Perry, depicting a scene of figures on a balcony with a dark blue backdrop. The text at the top reads "NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR ANNE PERRY". Beneath the imagery, in large white letters, is the title "MIDNIGHT AT MARBLE ARCH" and below it "A CHARLOTTE AND THOMAS PITT NOVEL" appears in a small blue banner.

Cover of the book "Silent as the Grave: A Molly Murphy Mystery" by Rhys Bowen and Clare Broyles. The cover features a woman in a green jacket and hat in front of a blue train, with the title "Silent as the Grave" at the top and "A Molly Murphy Mystery" below the train. The barcode and library sticker are partially covering the top title.
