Broken homes (DAW Books)

Ben Aaronovitch's bestselling Rivers of London urban fantasy seriesThe perfect blend of CSI and Harry Potter —io9A mutilated body in Crawley. A killer on the loose. The prime suspect is one Robert Weil, possibly an associate of the twisted wizard known as the Faceless Man.

Or maybe just a garden-variety serial killer. Before apprentice wizard and Police Constable Peter Grant can even get his head 'round the case, two more are dropped in his lap: a town planner has gone under a tube train, and there's a stolen grimoire for Grant to track down.

So far, so London. But then Peter gets word of something very odd happening on a housing estate designed aby a nutter, built aby charlatans, and inhabited żeby the truly desperate. Is there a connection?And if there is, why oh why did it have to be South of the River—in the jurisdiction of some pretty prickly local river spirits?
