Charlotte Lungstraß-Kapfer Ordine dei libri (cronologico)

In a world where magical items, known as unknowable objects, remain hidden from most, three members of a secret society vigilantly protect their archive. Meeting every six months in a London bookshop basement, they ensure these powerful items stay concealed from the outside world. When Frank Simpson, the society's longest-standing member, learns of a new artefact in Hong Kong, he sends the newest recruit, author Magda Sparks, to investigate. Upon her arrival, Magda quickly finds herself in grave danger, pursued by a professional killer who seeks a stolen artefact linked to him. Forced to flee with an unknown artefact, she returns to London only to uncover that secrets abound among the society's members, including the true nature of their mission. This revelation sends Magda on a treacherous journey across the Atlantic to the American South, where she seeks not just an artefact but the killer from Hong Kong. As she delves deeper, Magda realizes that many are after these magical items and that her family's legacy is entwined with their secrets. Ultimately, she discovers that while magic is powerful, the truth may be even more formidable.
