The ballad of perilous graves
Jennings, Alex, 1979-2022
Book
Nola is a city of wonders. A place of sky trolleys and dead cabs, where haints dance the night away and Wise Women keep the order. Where songs walk, talk and keep the spirit of the city alive. To those from Away, Nola might seem strange. To failed magician, Perilous Graves, it's simply home. Then the rhythm stutters. Nine songs of power have escaped from the magical piano that maintains the city's beat, and without them, Nola will fail. Unexpectedly, Perry and his sister, Brendy, are tasked with saving the city. But a storm is brewing and even if they capture the songs, Nola's time might be coming to an end.
