Summary

It's not everyday that someone attempts to murder the Foreign Secretary on the floor of parliament.  

Vampire turned Runner, John Grissom, is a founding member of Bow Street's new clandestine investigative division, Odd Crimes. He finds himself witnessing an assassination attempt on the Foreign Secretary. He then discovers London's most notorious purveyor of stolen goods at the bottom of it.  

Being a vampire certainly helps in his new investigative position, but the elusive fence and the Egyptian elixir may prove his undoing. Join Grissom and his fellow Odd Crimes Runners as they unravel a continent spanning conspiracy that could result in the enslavement of England to Napoleon if they don't prevail.
