Every person Harlow Carrenwell kisses dies, and that’s the way she likes it. The poison-lipped youngest daughter of Lunameade’s magical founding family has used her power to annihilate their enemies. Her first husband is in the ground. Her new betrothed is next. But Harlow has a secret. When she’s not acting as her parents’ assassin, she moonlights as a vigilante hunting abusive men in their walled city. Meet a man. Lure him in. Kill him with a kiss. Until one night Harlow kisses a mark and he doesn’t die. Worse, he is her new betrothed, Henry Havenwood, and now he knows about her double life. Instead of exposing her and sparking a war between their rival families, he does something far more dangerous – he whisks her away to marry him in his wild mountain fort. Harlow doesn’t trust Henry, but the only way to protect her family and city is to uncover what his family is planning.

A chance to serve at Point Mote, a vast, desolate house marooned on the misty Kent marshes. There, she will assist a reclusive family of cunning inventors in the creation of automata: miraculous, lifelike machines for which gentlemen collectors will pay handsomely. But this house of wonders hides mysteries too. As Bodkin starts to question why she is really there, she unearths secrets that have been buried bone-deep for years – and a truth beyond all imagining. One that was never meant to be found.

Since the first mosque was built by the Prophet Mohammad in Medina in 622, mosques have been spaces where worship and social life flourish side by side. In this book, Marwa Al-Sabouni – architect, Muslim, Syrian, woman – interweaves her personal experiences and reflections to bring the reader inside the mosque to understand its spiritual meaning, social significance and enduring cultural value.
