Miss Cassidy

Miss Cassidy is no ordinary governess. She can tutor the most wayward child, tell stories in several languages and fix any household crisis. But she also has the power to deal with problems of a far more dark and dangerous kind. Arriving in 1890s Singapore, this formidable Scotswoman soon finds herself (among other duties) ridding a house of a bloodthirsty demon and raising a spirit from the dead.

In 1890s Singapore, the formidable Miss Leda Cassidy arrives as paid companion to Sarah Jane Bendemeer, whose family suffers under the thrall of Southeast Asia's most terrifying hantu. But there's more to Miss Cassidy than meets the eye, and she's faced down worse in her life than a pontianak...

Singapore. 1906. Letty Ingram has travelled across the world to save her own soul. She is sure her beautiful, fearsome mother, from an island in the Malay Archipelago, is the key to the mystery. But first Letty has come to Singapore in search of famed Chinese medium Madam Kay. Soon Madam Kay's whole family is involved, including their unusual friend the formidable Miss Cassidy. And none of them can escape Miss Cassidy's past when they cross paths with the terrifying jungle spirit, Bungadarah.
