Daniel O'Malley
The Checquy Files
The Rook
Stilletto
Cross the Australian Public Service with a cloak-and-dagger world of people with supernatural powers, add a dollop of Medici-style politics, and transplant everyone to England, and you are in the world of the Checquy. In the first book, we meet the main character, Myfanwy Thomas, in a park in London in the middle of the night. Apart from the clues in the letter in her pocket - "The body you are
wearing used to be mine" - we know nothing about her, and neither does she. Great fun.
