Rivers of London Volume 1: Body Work

Grant’s latest case begins with a perfectly innocent car on a homicidal killing spree – without a driver.

Rivers of London Volume 2: Night Witch

The daughter of a powerful Russian oligarch has vanished from her home, apparently taken by a mythical forest creature fresh out of Russian legend.

Rivers of London Volume 4: Detective Stories

Four self-contained magical crimes, ripped from the streets of supernatural London. As PC Peter Grant faces his gruelling Detective exam, forcing him to relive the strangest cases of his career. From foiling an aspiring god to confronting a Virtual Flasher, Peter’s police history has been anything but conventional; whether that’s chasing down ‘Falcon’ crimes with the aid of modern technology, or confronting timeless villainy with his magical skill-set. Does Peter have what it takes… or will DI Chopra judge him unsuitable for a badge?

Rivers of London Volume 5: Cry Fox

Child kidnapping is already an appalling crime, but in the latest case for Detective Constable Peter Grant – newly promoted in the ranks of London’s Metropolitan Police, but with a lot still to learn about wizarding – things take a truly dark turn when the victims become the prey in a homicidal hunt that Grant and members of the Folly must stop!

A menacing figure known only as the Hoodette is sending her henchmen along the river to distribute her new magically-produced drug.
