About the Book

'Charming fantasy... Feels like a classic-in-waiting'Guardian 'Mary Poppins meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer'The Lady MISS CASSIDY IS NO ORDINARY GOVERNESS. She can tutor the most wayward child, tell stories in multiple languages and fix any household crisis. But she also deals with problems of a far more dark and dangerous kind. Arriving in 1890s Singapore, this formidable, flame-haired Scotswoman soon finds herself (among other things) ridding a house of a bloodthirsty demon and raising a spirit from the dead. But when she is hired by the wealthy Chinese widower Mr Kay, whose family is suffering from a terrible curse, she must battle forces far more ancient and powerful than any she has encountered - not to mention the unexpected impulses of her own heart... An irresistible brew of magic, romance and mystery The Formidable Miss Cassidy invites you to embark on a thrilling supernatural adventure alongside an unforgettable heroine. PRAISE FOR THE FORMIDABLE MISS CASSIDY 'Turn-of-the-century Singapore opens the doors for adventures you just can't have anywhere else. Ghosts, demons, and other unexpected critters are lurking everywhere, but it's the cast of human characters that steal the show. Full of heart, mystery, and misadventures, this is crazy fun from start to finish' - Douglas Westerbeke, author of A Short Walk Through a Wide World The Formidable Miss Cassidy is a charming, delightful mix of history and folklore with a splash of the whimsical and otherworldly. With a wildly entertaining story and wonderfully memorable characters, Miss Cassidy and her adventures will stick with me for a good long while! It's sure to be an instant hit' - Poppy Kuroki, author of Gate to Kagoshima 'What a delight-I haven't enjoyed an adventure this much in years. Great fun, completely immersive and bursting with characters who leap off the page. A debut as impressive as Miss Cassidy herself!' - Amie Kaufman, author of the NY Times bestseller The Other Side of the Sky 'A charming adventure, a competent heroine and a middle-aged romance you find yourself rooting for... An utter delight' - The Straits Times 'The Formidable Miss Cassidy is a page-turner, exuding the daylight smells and colours, and the cicada-singing nights, of Old Singapore. The borders between the real and mythological realms are presented as porous veils, featuring local ghosts and familiars such as the pontianak and toyol on the same canvas as Scylla and the fay. At the centre of the magic, mystery and mischief, Miss Cassidy delights' - Nuraliah Norasid, award-winning author of The Gatekeeper 'Quirky, charming and with a gorgeous heart of gold, The Formidable Miss Cassidy is a feminist tale, ghost story and period piece wrapped up in one fascinating book I simply could not put down' - Suffian Hakim, bestselling author of The Keepers of Stories
