The Society of Unknowable Objects
What you need to know before your trail
The world of unknowable objects – magical items that most people have no idea possess powers – has been quiet for decades . . .
But three current members of a secret society have remained watchful, meeting every six months in the basement of a bookshop in London. They are pledged to protect their archive of magical items hidden away, safe from the outside world – and keep the world safe from them. But when Frank Simpson, the longest-standing member of the Society of Unknowable Objects, hears of a new artefact coming to light in Hong Kong, he sends the Society’s newest member, author Magda Sparks, to investigate.
Travel Guide
London, Hong Kong, Cairo, Washington State
The main part of the story takes place in these four places but there are visits to Alabama (Masters is a fictional town) so don’t try to find that unless you have the magic map of course. There is a key scene in the Nevada desert when the book opens but again, that is not a key location in the novel and is fleeting.
Alabama, Nevada
The scene at the start of the book here is magical as it is mysterious.
