Suspicious deaths are not usually the concern of Police Constable Peter Grant or the Folly—London’s police department for supernatural cases—even when they happen at an exclusive party in one of the flats of the most expensive apartment blocks in London.
Peter Grant—cop, magical apprentice, and Londoner to the
core—is being forced out of his comfort zone and into the
English countryside. His latest case involves the disappearance of
children in the small village of Herefordshire, and the local
police are unwilling to admit there might be a supernatural element
involved.
