The Last Bogler

With the plague of bogles in Victorian London barely contained, bogle hunter Alfred Bunce needs all the help he can get. So Ned Roach becomes a bogler’s apprentice, luring child-eating monsters from their lairs just like his friends Jem and Birdie. It’s dangerous work that takes Ned into mysterious and hidden parts of the city. The stakes get even higher for them when an old enemy appears—a threat that may be deadlier than any bogle.

"Fans of How to Catch a Bogle (rev. 9/13) and A Plague of Bogles (rev. 1/15) will appreciate Jinks’s accessible prose, colorful with Victorian slang (glossary included); her inventive, briskly paced plot; and the gloom and charm of this trilogy-ender’s quasi-Victorian setting." —Horn Book   "...the conclusion of this trilogy will satisfy thrillseekers and armchair philosophers alike." —Bulletin   "Fans of this richly atmospheric adventure trilogy, which began with the riveting How to Catch a Bogle (2013), won’t want to miss the final volume." —Booklist   "The final book of the trilogy contains everything that made the first two so appealing: finely drawn characters and engaging action sequences all set in the richly described Victorian setting." —School Library Journal
