THE HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED BRAND NEW NOVEL IN THE #1 BESTSELLING RIVERS OF LONDON SERIES

There is a world hidden underneath this great city....

The London Silver Vaults—for well over a century, the largest collection of silver for sale in the world. It has more locks than the Bank of England and more cameras than a celebrity punch-up.

Not somewhere you can murder someone and vanish without a trace—only that's what happened.

The disappearing act, the reports of a blinding flash of light and memory loss amongst the witnesses all make this a case for Detective Constable Peter Grant and the Special Assessment Unit.

Alongside their boss, DCI Thomas Nightingale, the SAU find themselves embroiled in a mystery that encompasses London's tangled history, foreign lands and, most terrifying of all, the North!

And Peter must solve this case soon because back home, his partner, Beverley, is expecting twins any day now. But what he doesn't know is that he's about to encounter something—and somebody—that nobody ever expects....

Effortlessly original, endlessly inventive and hugely entertaining—step into the world of the much-loved, number one best-selling Rivers of London series.

Discover why this incredible series has sold over two million copies worldwide. If you're a fan of Terry Pratchett, you will love the imaginative, irreverent and all-round irresistible RIVERS OF LONDON books.

Tightly woven, intriguing, even paced, comical, whimsical, breathtaking story with my beloved characters and that spellbinding Narrator, Kobna Holdbrook-Smith, casting his mesmerising spell. I had a dread that one of my favourite characters was going to cop it. Listen/read to find out.

Well worth waiting for

It's more of a worldbuilding book but Kobna is such a great narrator that he can make anything interesting.

ok story great narration

Properly enteritaing novel, and well worth your time. That said if you're reading this you're already several books in ...

Good as always, and made better by the narration

I love how Aaronovitch keeps building up the world and building out the cast of this series. Anyone who thought the story was done with Lies Sleeping was truly mistaken.

This book is just as excellent as any of the others in the series, not standing head and shoulders above the rest of the pack but not slipping beneath it or standing out for its strangeness (like Foxglove Summer) either.

Consistently excellent
