The Formidable Miss Cassidy

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Miss Cassidy is no ordinary governess. She can tutor the most wayward child, tell stories in multiple languages, and fix any household crisis. But she also deals with problems of a far more dark and dangerous kind.

Arriving in 1890s Singapore, this formidable, flame-haired Scotswoman soon finds herself (among other things) ridding a house of a bloodthirsty demon and raising a spirit from the dead. But when she is hired by the wealthy Chinese widower, Mr Kay, whose family is suffering from a terrible curse, she must battle forces far more ancient and powerful than any she has encountered - not to mention the unexpected impulses of her own heart...

An irresistible brew of magic, romance, and mystery, The Formidable Miss Cassidy invites you to embark on a thrilling supernatural adventure alongside an unforgettable heroine.

About the Author

Meihan Boey is a Singaporean novelist and vice president of the Association of Comic Artists of Singapore. She came up with the character of Miss Cassidy while writing a short story pitting a familiar Victorian British governess figure against one of Southeast Asia's most terrifying ghouls, the pontianak. That story later became The Formidable Miss Cassidy, Meihan's debut novel, which won the Singapore Books Award and was co-winner of the Epigram Books Fiction Prize. Miss Cassidy also appears in the sequel, The Enigmatic Madam Ingram, and will return again in a third book, which Meihan is currently writing.
