![]() ![]() I have a soft spot for a good police procedural, and this one checked many of those boxes. Nightingale is a wizard, and begins training Peter in the use of magic, while at the same time, they attempt to solve a series of related murders. He is assigned to work with DCI Nightingale, who runs the equivalent of London’s X-Files: Nightingale catches every case with some kind of magical or otherworldly involvement. Thus is Peter dropped unceremoniously into the world of the uncanny. While on duty maintaining the perimeter at a particularly brutal murder, Peter is approached by an eyewitness…who happens to be a ghost. He’s hoping to be a detective with the Met, but the odds are not looking good. Peter Grant is a Probationary Constable, waiting for his long-term assignment after training. A work assignment relating to Mysteries in May finally gave me the push to read it – well, to listen to the audio on Libby. ![]() It’s billed as X-Files meets Harry Potter in London, and you might as well call it RaRa Catnip and be done. ![]() The “Rivers of London” series has been on my TBR for a long time. ![]()
