The Society of Unknowable Objects - Gareth Brown
For decades, the world of unknowable objects — magical items hidden from ordinary people — has remained quiet, guarded by a secret society meeting beneath a London bookshop. When a new artefact surfaces in Hong Kong, the Society sends its newest member, author Magda Sparks, to investigate. She quickly finds herself hunted by a deadly killer who knows far too much about magical objects and has a history tied to one of them. Forced to flee using a secret artefact of her own, Magda returns to London only to discover that every member of the Society is hiding dangerous truths. Her search leads her across the Atlantic, not for an object, but for the man who tried to kill her. As secrets unravel, Magda realises that truth itself may be more powerful — and more dangerous — than magic.
