The Books Oracle

Hazardous Spirits

by Anbara Salam

In 1920s Edinburgh, Evelyn discovers her mild-mannered husband Robert has developed an uncanny ability to contact the dead following a head injury. As Robert becomes consumed by his spiritualist work, Evelyn must navigate their fracturing marriage while questioning whether the spirits are real or her husband is losing his mind. A lush domestic Gothic that explores the unknowable mysteries of both the supernatural and the people we love.
