A dangerous cult craves a dark power.

The spellbinding fourth instalment of the Edinburgh Nights series by T. L. Huchu. Perfect for fans of Stranger Things and Rivers of London.

'Engrossing and entertaining . . . with genuine emotion - and genuine betrayal' - Genevieve Cogman, author of the Invisible Library series

Ropa Moyo is a wannabe magician, can speak to the dead, and has officially given up being an intern at the Society of Sceptical Enquirers. Leaving Scottish magic behind, she now works for the English Sorcerer Royal. But just as she adjusts to working for the English, an old enemy reveals a devastating secret about her Gran, and Ropa's world falls apart.

Outraged, she rushes home, but finds her grandmother dead - murdered - with no killer in sight. And now she's the prime suspect. In a quest to find the true murderer, Ropa becomes caught in the dark tendrils of a cult, hell-bent on resurrecting an ancient power. Ropa must use her wits, her magic, and call in all favours to stop the ritual - and clear her name.

The Legacy of Arniston House is followed by Secrets of the First School, the nail-biting conclusion to the Edinburgh Nights series.
