"Alluring, shadowy Edinburgh with its hints of sophisticated academic
magic will draw you in, but it's Ropa - a hard knocks ghostalker on her
paranormal grind to pay the rent - who grabs hold. The moment you meet
her, you'll follow wherever she goes." - Olivie Blake, New York Times
bestselling author of The Atlas Six
**
T.L. Huchu returns with the gripping Our Lady of Mysterious Ailments,
the next in the Alex-Award-winning Edinburgh Nights series.**
Some secrets are meant to stay buried
When Ropa Moyo discovered an occult underground library, she expected
great things. She's really into Edinburgh's secret societies - but turns
out they are less into her. So instead of getting paid to work magic,
she's had to accept a crummy unpaid internship. And her with bills to
pay and a pet fox to feed.
Then her friend Priya offers her a job on the side. Priya works at Our
Lady of Mysterious Maladies, a very specialized hospital, where a new
illness is resisting magical and medical remedies alike. The first
patient was a teenage boy, Max Wu, and his healers are baffled. If Ropa
can solve the case, she might earn as she learns - and impress her
mentor, Sir Callander.
Her sleuthing will lead her to a lost fortune, an avenging spirit and a
secret buried deep in Scotland's past. But how are they connected? Lives
are at stake and Ropa is running out of time.
