In an alternate St. Petersburg, librarian-spy Irene faces unimaginable dangers – as her arch-nemesis returns. The Burning Page is the third instalment in the Invisible Library series from bestselling author Genevieve Cogman.
Librarian-spy Irene is on probation – and absconding from a mission doesn''t look good. But when her escape route home goes up in flames, what''s a spy to do?
It turns out, Irene''s home, the trans-dimensional library, is under siege. Across dozens of worlds, its once-reliable Gates back to the library are malfunctioning. Irene''s nemesis, Alberich, is responsible – with plans to annihilate the library itself.
To face the threat, Irene and assistant Kai are posted to St Petersburg. Here, Irene stumbles upon an incredibly dangerous – yet alluring – opportunity. It''s a chance to save the library. Saving herself would be a bonus . . .
Brace yourself for an action-filled ride with stolen books, covert operatives, and clandestine societies!
Irene''s adventures continue in The Lost Plot, the next captivating entry in The Invisible Library series.
