The Legacy of Arniston House

About the book

A dangerous cult craves a dark power. The Legacy of Arniston House is the spellbinding fourth instalment of the Edinburgh Nights series by T. L. Huchu.

‘Alluring . . . hints of sophisticated academic magic will draw you in’
- Olivie Blake, author of The Atlas Six on The Library of the Dead

Ropa Moyo is a wannabe magician, can speak to the dead, and has officially given up being an intern. 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. What’s more, she’s the prime suspect. In her 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.
