| book description |

Enter the library of an enigmatic collector, where occult books are guarded and researched at a fatal cost, with this uncanny eldritch horror novel from Nebula Awardâ€“winning author Premee Mohamed and The Magnus Archivesâ€™ Jonathan Sims. Fear comes before the fall. In the winding, perilous corridors of Jurgen Leitnerâ€™s private library, you never know what youâ€™ll find. A starving cookbook. An ancient scroll that casts cool, predatory breezes. A cloth-bound hardback that compels you to DIG, DIG, DIG, DIG. Free, these books are more than simply unnervingâ€”theyâ€™re deadly. But the library keeps their dangers in check and their would-be readers safe. . . . Or so Leitner claims. For two of his employees, the risks are worth it. Hugh Franklin, research assistant, has finally found a place he belongs, where his skill in translation is valued, even if his employer is a bit odd. Sebastian Everett, acquisition specialist, can indulge his arcane ambitions, even if it means pretending to care about Leitnerâ€™s mission. Though their tenures at the library were years apart, Hugh and Sebastianâ€™s stories unfold in parallel, and their footsteps echo down the same eerie aisles, caught in a web spun long before either ever heard the name â€œJurgen Leitner.â€ Will they find a way out . . . or will the library consume them before itâ€™s too late?
