’Alluring, shadowy Edinburgh with its hints of sophisticated academic magic will draw you in' – Olivie Blake, author on The Atlas Six on The Library of the Dead

She came for magic. She stayed to solve a murder . . .

Ropa Moyo is no stranger to magic or mysteries. After all, she's a ghostalker – one who can talk to the dead. But she’s still stuck in an irksomely unpaid internship. So she’s thrilled to attend a magical convention at Dunvegan Castle, on the Isle of Skye, where she’ll rub elbows with eminent magicians.

For Ropa, it’s the perfect opportunity to finally prove her worth. Then a librarian is murdered and a precious scroll stolen. Suddenly, every magician is a suspect, and Ropa and her allies investigate. Trapped in a castle, with suspicions mounting, Ropa must contend with corruption, skulduggery and power plays. Time to ask for a raise?
