Manually Added Book, Information Incorrect, "Black Hole Work"?

I acquired a book by Philip Wayre, but when I tried to add it to my LT library the ISBN and book title had zero results. I added it manually and it displayed as if it had been incorrectly combined to thousands of other books. Under Book Information it is listed as a Black Hole Work.

What can be done to fix this?

Lutra, the Story of an Otter by Philip Wayre
ISBN 0001956119

That’s really a combination issue. At some point in the past, either the isbn or something weird in the title got caught into the black hole work. There is rarely any logic in that. :( We occasionally need to rescue books from there.

Yours is now out and where it belongs.
