The Mystical Mister Kay

The final gripping chapter in the saga of Miss Cassidy. The Mystical Mister Kay, a ghost-seer from Singapore, arrives in the English city of Tolwich in search of his friend Miss Cassidy. His investigation takes a darker turn as a princess is found dead, a cult-like fashion house holds the city in its grip, and a seminary for Asian royals hides secrets. As gods from Ancient Greece and Asia slip into the mortal world, Mr Kay is pulled into a mystery that spans continents and mythologies—one that may bring him closer to Miss Cassidy, or destroy him trying. The story shifts between the myths of Ancient Greece, Asian religions, and the magic of domestic gods and faeries, alongside human characters and their lives. At its core, it features a love story and a celebration of family, while addressing themes of empire, industrialisation, and women's struggles against patriarchy. The novel offers a vivid and ingeniously plotted narrative with richly realised characters and a blend of mythology and modern settings.
