audioboek


Opening up a world of magic and adventure, The Library of the Dead by T. L. Huchu is the first audiobook in the Edinburgh Nights series.

ā€˜A fast-moving and entertaining tale, beautifully writtenā€™ ā€“ Ben Aaronovitch, bestselling author of Rivers of London

ā€˜I highly recommend The Library of the Deadā€™ ā€“ Charlaine Harris, author of the Sookie Stackhouse series

When ghosts talk, she will listen . . .

Ropa dropped out of school to become a ghostalker ā€“ and she now speaks to Edinburghā€™s dead, carrying messages to the living. A girlā€™s gotta earn a living, and it seems harmless enough. Until, that is, the dead whisper that someoneā€™s bewitching children ā€“ leaving them husks, empty of joy and life. Itā€™s on Ropaā€™s patch, so she feels honour bound to investigate. But what she learns will change her world.

Sheā€™ll dice with death (not part of her life plan . . .) as she calls on Zimbabwean magic and Scottish pragmatism to hunt down clues. For Edinburgh hides a wealth of secrets. And in the process, she discovers an occult library and some unexpected allies. Yet as shadows lengthen, will the hunter become the hunted?

'Roll on the sequel' ā€“ The Times

'One of the strangest and most compelling fantasy worlds you'll see all year' ā€“ SFX
