Produktbeschreibung

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. However, she may have met her match in the indefatigable businessman, Mr Kay Wing Tong, whose large and constantly-growing family clearly requires female supervision—especially of the particular kind Miss Cassidy can provide. Ill omens and strange happenings surround Mr Kay and his colourful family, and Miss Cassidy must find a way to defend the ones she has learned to love. © 2021 by Meihan Boey. Published in paper format in Singapore by Epigram Books, recorded by Storyside 2022.

Autorenporträt

Meihan Boey is a Singaporean novelist and vice president of the Association of Comic Artists of Singapore. She came up with the character of Miss Cassidy while writing a short story pitting a familiar Victorian British governess figure against one of Southeast Asia's most terrifying ghouls, the Pontianak. That story later became The Formidable Miss Cassidy, Meihan's debut novel, which won the Singapore Books Award and was co-winner of the Epigram Books Fiction Prize. Miss Cassidy also appears in the sequel, The Enigmatic Madam Ingram, and will return again in a third book, which Meihan is currently writing.
