The bride's party is welcomed with elaborate courtesies and extravagant banquets, but between the frightened servants and the cryptic warnings of the lord's mad son, they quickly realise that something is haunting the shadowed halls.  As Chih and the bride-to-be explore empty rooms and desolate courtyards, they are drawn into the mystery of what became of Lord Guo's previous wives and the dark history of Do Cao itself. But as the wedding night draws to its close, Chih will learn at their peril that not all monsters are to be found in the shadows; some monsters hide in plain sight.

The novellas are standalone stories linked by the Cleric Chih, and may be read in any order.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49751590895889,"sku":"NGR9781250851444","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50430269456657,"sku":"CIN1250851440G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51022134378769,"sku":"NIN9781250851444","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1250851440.jpg?v=1751439594"},{"product_id":"mammoths-at-the-gates-book-nghi-vo-9781250851437","title":"Mammoths at the Gates","description":"War mammoths, legendary empresses, wandering clerics: the Hugo Award-winning fantasy series returns with a punch in this standalone adventure.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49752814584081,"sku":"NGR9781250851437","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50468685054225,"sku":"CIN1250851432G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51022151319825,"sku":"NIN9781250851437","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53216268386577,"sku":"GOR014809779","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53218283684113,"sku":"GOR014811281","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53494880239889,"sku":"CIN1250851432VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1250851432.jpg?v=1751208063"},{"product_id":"long-and-speaking-silence-a-book-nghi-vo-9781250386427","title":"A Long and Speaking Silence, A","description":"\"Nghi Vo is so good.\"—NPR on The Brides of High Hill  Every story begins somewhere.  On the banks of the Ya-lé River, the town of Luntien gathers to celebrate the start of the rainy season, but the celebration is marred by the arrival of refugees from the sea. Everyone has a story about the foreigners newly in their midst—lazy, violent, unwanted—while the refugees themselves grieve the loss of the home they loved.  Cleric Chih, very recently still Novice Chih, is also a stranger in Luntien. A moment of carelessness and bad luck leaves them waiting tables as they struggle to establish themself as a real cleric. A cleric’s job is to listen and record, but the stories emerging in Luntien are ugly and violent, as hard to predict as the river itself. With their hoopoe companion Almost Brilliant by their side, Chih must help the refugees while also unraveling a mystery that may have roots in their own faraway home in the abbey of Singing Hills.  In the seventh entry of the award-winning Singing Hills series, we meet Chih and Almost Brilliant just beginning their journey together as Chih assumes their place on the road and in the world.  The novellas of the Singing Hills series are standalone stories linked by the Cleric Chih, and may be read in any order.
