Our Lady of Mysterious Ailments by T. L. Huchu is the second
spellbinding book in the Edinburgh Nights series. 'A fast-moving
and entertaining tale, beautifully written' - Ben Aaronovitch,
bestselling author of Rivers of London on The Library of the Dead
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.
Praise for The Library of the Dead: 'Roll on the sequel' - The
Times 'One of the strangest and most compelling fantasy worlds
you'll see all year' - SFX
