Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"A page-turner brimming with betrayal and adventure." —ELLE

"Isabel Ibañez delivers a captivating sequel with What the Library Hides, the follow-up to What the River Knows. Set against the sweeping, mystical backdrop of late-1800s Egypt, this novel masterfully intertwines ancient magic, personal redemption, and the fall of once-powerful figures. Ibañez takes readers deeper into the world of Inez Olivera and Whitford Hayes, creating a thrilling conclusion that is every bit as enchanting as its predecessor. As a lover of Egyptian history, mythology, and romance, I couldn’t put this book down." —Nerd Daily

"Ibañez’s clever, sensual writing paints a vivid picture of a world where old magic can be found in unexpected places. Clearly articulated characters create a diverse and engaging cast full of layers and personal motives, while emotional resonance propels the story and their arcs forward." —School Library Journal

"More danger and intrigue lurk at every turn in this exciting duology closer... A thrilling, beautifully written page-turner." —Kirkus Reviews, starred

"Magic is in the air!" —Goodreads

★ 2024-08-17
A young woman pursues a dangerous quest in late-1800s Egypt in this sequel toWhat the River Knows (2023).

After Inez Olivera was nearly murdered while assisting with her uncle’s archaeological expedition in Egypt, Tío Ricardo is eager to ship her home to safety in Argentina. But Inez burns with the need to stay and make sure that those who committed crimes against her family are held responsible. Unfortunately, the law precludes Inez, as a young unmarried woman, from accessing her inheritance (needed to fund her quest for justice) without her guardian uncle’s permission. Whitford Hayes, a former British soldier and her tío’s aide-de-camp, proposes marriage, which could solve her problems. But can Inez trust the secretive Whit? More danger and intrigue lurk at every turn in this exciting duology closer, which fully addresses the first entry’s jaw-dropping cliffhanger. The well-paced plot encompasses many fresh, new adventures and betrayals in this reimagined historical setting in which ancient magic abounds and not everyone or everything is what it seems. Even more captivating, however, is the complicated, nuanced love story between Whit and Inez. Their chemistry sizzles, but their relationship is achingly layered with both profound loyalty and deep deception. As their journey unearths new enemies and priceless archaeological finds, the duo must try to trust each other enough to survive.

A thrilling, beautifully written page-turner. (cast of characters, map, timeline)(Historical fantasy. 14-18)
