Welcome to Litsy!

When mysteriously powerful instruments are wreaking havoc in 1920s Harlem, it‘s up to Gussie, a former Folly practitioner, & Nightingale to hunt them down.

I really was expecting a lot more Nightingale, but Gussie & his boyfriend are a delight. The exploration of magic beyond England was fascinating, & the glimpses of Harlem nightlife were so fun. The mystery was really compressed & a bit abrupt, but overall one of my favorite novellas.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

My only real issue with this book was that I wanted more Nightingale. Instead, the story finds Nightingale in New York and is told from the point of view of an old schoolmate — Augustus Berrycloth-Young. He‘s a fun character, and we get to view both Nightingale and 1920s Harlem through his eyes.

Surprise afternoon off equals uninterrupted reading time! 💛

Another winner from the Rivers of London series.

This novella is set at the Jazz age. It's part of memoirs of Augustus "Gussie" Berrycloth-Young, Englishman in New York. He left Casterbrook and the Folly behind and is quite shaken when Thomas Nightingale appears on his doorstep.

I absolutely loved this adventure. Seeing The Nightingale during his high time but slightly out of his depth by being on the other side of the Pond.
