So Peter Grant has survived his introduction to the fine balancing act of being a member of the London Metropolitan Police Force and being a wizard. His friend Lesley is trying to cope with her destroyed face and having to move back to be with her parents and not knowing what she's going to able to do in the future. It's mostly because of his father that he spots the link between some recent deaths. They appear normal but there's something else there, something strange, they're all Jazz players and finding what's killing them is almost going to kill him, and his boss.I love this series. The characters are well rounded and come to life on the page, he holds the numinous close to the real and you can imagine it really happening. I could imagine this as a TV series and would probably be hooked from the first episode.
