There’s often trouble of a mythical sort in Bath. The booksellers who police the Old World keep watch there, particularly on the entity who inhabits the ancient hot spring. Yet this time it’s not from Sulis Minerva that trouble starts. It comes from the discovery of a sorcerous map, leading left-handed bookseller Merlin into great danger. A desperate rescue is attempted by his sister the right-handed bookseller Vivien and their friend, art student Susan Arkshaw, who’s still struggling to deal with her own recently discovered magical heritage. The map takes them to a place separated from this world. But this is only the beginning, as the booksellers investigate centuries of disappearances and deaths and try to unravel secrets of the murderous Lady of Stone, a serial killer of awesome powers. If they don’t stop her, she will soon kill again. And this time, her target is not an ordinary mortal.

A thrilling, atmospheric dive into the history of the Abhorsen, featuring Sabriel’s parents, Terciel and Elinor. In the Old Kingdom, a land of ancient and often terrible magics, 18 year-old orphan Terciel is learning the art of necromancy – but not to raise the Dead, rather to lay them to rest. He is the Abhorsen-in-Waiting, the latest in a long line of people whose task it is to make sure the Dead do not return to Life. Across the Wall in Ancelstierre, a steam-age country where magic usually does not work, 19 year-old Elinor lives a secluded life, her only friends an old governess and an even older groom who was once a famous circus performer. Her mother is a tyrant, feared by all despite her sickness and impending death. Elinor does not know she is deeply connected to the Old Kingdom, until a plot by an ancient enemy of the Abhorsens brings Terciel to Ancelstierre.
