Emilia Southee—Nanny to three children of a family who are not perfect but allow her to be—is thrown in to a dark and dangerous world after discovering that her wards, their family, the household’s servants and the entire neighbourhood has completely vanished without a trace.Soon after, she meets the dark and mysterious Thomas Colqueran, a member of Considine House: the secret organisation tasked with keeping Britain’s interests regarding demons, spirits and other supernatural phenomenon behind closed doors. Thomas then realises that Emilia is a Seer: one of only a handful of people in England who have the power to shape the future.Promised to be taught everything about her newly discovered talent, Emilia is encouraged to join Considine House as an agent, but is distracted by Denleigh Cook, a young and attractive man who infuriates Emilia with his unexpected arrival that spins her life in several directions at once.Whilst having the full attention of both Denleigh and Thomas placed upon her, Emilia finds that searching for her missing family is not easy as she thought as she attempts to infiltrate one of the most powerful families in England in the hope of finding those missing, but also wanting to reveal the secrets to whatever it is that she has fallen in to.Book two of the Considine House Archives, 'The Mirror Realm', is coming soon.
