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.

My Thoughts:

This is not my usual read but something about the story line intrigued me. Miss Cassidy is ready to change the lives of people around her. I felt as though she was a bit like Mary Poppins, I thought Miss Cassidy of a wonderful woman who would do anything for anyone and help the best way that she can, it was full of adventure and mystery that it kind of makes you spell bound. It was definitely a unique and quirky read but one I am glad I picked up.

I received an ARC copy of this book for an honest review.
