When the magical world calls, Nick Paris picks up – grudgingly. Inspector Nick Paris – reluctant hero and part-time investigator of the bizarre – would much rather deal with petty theft than portal-hopping mayhem. But when a gruesome murder rocks the streets of Manchester and a rapping dwarf tops the suspect list, Paris finds himself dragged once more into the hidden world of magic, mischief, and mildly uncooperative elves. With old allies, odd enemies, and supernatural shenanigans in full swing, Paris must solve the case before things spiral out of this realm. An urban fantasy with a comic twist – perfect for fans of Ben Aaronovitch, Terry Pratchett, and Jasper Fforde.
