The Society Of Unknowable Objects

The Society of Unknowable Objects by Gareth Brown is a fantastical thriller about a secret society protecting magical objects whose powers are hidden from the wider world. When a new artefact surfaces in Hong Kong, Magda Sparks, the Society's newest member, is sent to investigate and quickly becomes the target of a dangerous killer.

Her investigation draws her from London to Hong Kong and eventually across the Atlantic to the deep south of the United States. Along the way, Magda uncovers secrets within the Society, encounters others searching for magical objects and discovers that her own family history is connected to the protection of these hidden powers.

About This Book

The story centres on the Society of Unknowable Objects, a small secret organisation whose members safeguard an archive of magical artefacts. Three current members meet every six months in the basement of a London bookshop, maintaining their watch over objects that could pose a danger if exposed to the world.

When Frank Simpson, the Society's longest-standing member, learns of an artefact in Hong Kong, Magda is dispatched to investigate. Her mission becomes far more dangerous when she encounters a professional killer who has his own connection to an unknowable object stolen years earlier.

Back in London, Magda discovers that members of the Society have been concealing secrets from one another. Her search ultimately becomes a pursuit not only of magical objects but of a mysterious person, while revelations about the Society's purpose and her family's legacy challenge what she believed about its mission.
