Why I cannot delete a page in iBook Author

I am editing a book. I have deleted some pages without trouble, but there is this page I cannot delete. Everytime I try to do it, iBook Author deletes the next page, not the one I want to delete! I have tried adding an intermediate blank page, but if try to delete the page I want to delete, it deletes the page next to the blank page!


The book was created initially by another author (unknown to me).

iBook, macOS Sierra (10.12.5), iBook Author

The page you are deleting was probably created by inserting a page, rather than a page that was generated by the flow of the text.


Click View > Show Layout Boundaries and then View > Show Invisibles


Check to see if you have a bunch of paragraph markers forcing the extra page, or make sure you don't have a manual forced page break (see attachment).
