The Missing of Clairdelune by Christelle Dabos

 

The Missing of Clairdelune by Christelle Dabos (La Passe- Miroir #2), 512 p.

"When Ophelia is promoted to Vice-storyteller by Farouk, the ancestral Spirit of Pole, she finds herself unexpectedly thrust into the public spotlight. her gift―the ability to read the secret history of objects―is now known by all, and there can be no greater threat to the nefarious denizens of her icy adopted home than this.

Beneath the golden rafters of Pole's capitol, she discovers that the only person she may be able to trust is Thorn, her enigmatic and emotionally distant fiancé. As one influential courtier after another disappears, Ophelia again finds herself unintentionally implicated in an investigation that will lead her to see beyond Pole's many illusions to the heart of a formidable truth. "--Amazon blurb

This second installment of the series is just as good and just as frustrating as the first. The storyline is unique and interesting enough to keep me wanting to continue, but these characters are so unlikeable! So much of the plot would just be gone if they would just talk to each other. But then we'd only have a book that was 80 pages long. Regardless, I will be continuing this series.
