When a friend shows David Ash a You Tube video of an ancient ceremony and the participant turns to Ash in the middle of the action and directly threatens him and every single one of his friends and colleagues, Ash realises that the quiet period that was the last few months has come to an end and that he is now at war.
But war with whom? Fairy? Certainly Puck and Oberon have turned up and are as dangerous and insane as ever. Ordinary humans? His boss, Christina Rossetti, gives Ash access to The Regiment but will those highly train soldiers be enough. The Celtic hordes? Llewellyn has been acting strangely and his connections do reach back that far.
But no, it's none of them. The truth is far worse. Ash is now at war with the most dangerous, most ruthless, most organised engine of destruction that the ancient world ever knew. A group who were death incarnate to their foes and they are terrifying.
When in Rome you know that your trouble. When in Rome you know that anyone of millions of people might be your nemesis. When in Rome, one single slip and you are dead.
The latest book in The Hidden Academy series pits David Ash up against his most fearsome adversary so far and... he had a sneaking suspicion that they are merely puppets.
