De Iremonger Trilogie

Deze trilogie dompelt lezers onder in een bizarre wereld, gedomineerd door bergen afgedankte voorwerpen en bewoond door een eigenaardige familie die gebonden is door geheimen. Elk lid krijgt bij de geboorte een uniek voorwerp dat ze nooit mogen wegdoen, maar één bezit de zeldzame gave om deze voorwerpen te horen spreken. Terwijl schaduwen uit het verleden zich roeren en de mysteries die hun vreemde wereld bijeenhouden beginnen te ontrafelen, dreigt een naderend gevaar hen te verzwelgen. Het is een boeiend verhaal over familie, vergeten dingen en de duistere waarheden verborgen in het afval van de geschiedenis.

    Clod Iremonger is surrounded by peculiar objects that speak to him, including a brass door handle and a unique bath plug, reflecting his family's unusual connection to discarded items. The Iremonger family prefers these objects to remain silent, but their secrets begin to unravel with the arrival of Lucy Pennant. As the objects stir and chaos ensues, Clod is faced with profound questions about identity and belonging, challenging his understanding of family and his place within it.

  2. Foulsham, London's great filth repository, is bursting at the seams. In the Iremonger family offices, Grandfather Umbitt Iremonger broods: in his misery and fury at the people of London, he has found a way of making everyday objects assume human shape, and turning real people into objects. Abandoned in the depths of the Heaps, Lucy Pennant has been rescued by a terrifying creature, Binadit Iremonger - more animal than human. She is desperate and determined to find Clod. But unbeknownst to her, Clod has become a golden sovereign and is 'lost'. He is being passed as currency from hand to hand all around Foulsham, and yet everywhere people are searching for him, desperate to get hold of this dangerous Iremonger, who, it is believed, has the power to bring the mighty Umbitt down.
