Publisher's Summary
A deadly history.
A dangerous mystery.
And a dark plan coming to light.
In London, the past is never dead. It only...lies sleeping.
Martin Chorley - aka the Faceless Man - wanted for multiple counts of murder, fraud and crimes against humanity, has been unmasked and is on the run. Peter Grant, Detective Constable and apprentice wizard, now plays a key role in an unprecedented joint operation to bring Chorley to justice.
But even as the unwieldy might of the Metropolitan Police bears down on its foe, Peter uncovers clues that Chorley, far from being finished, is executing the final stages of a long term plan. A plan that has its roots in London's two thousand bloody years of history, and could literally bring the city to its knees.
To save his beloved city Peter's going to need help from his former best friend and colleague - Lesley May - who brutally betrayed him and everything he thought she believed in. And, far worse, he might even have to come to terms with the malevolent supernatural killer and agent of chaos known as Mr Punch...

Brilliant once again!
I love this series I’m typically not drawn to sci-fi/fantasy but this is such a well written series that never disappoints. Kobna Holdbrook-Smith is such a brilliant narrator who embues each voice with distinctly different traits! Can’t wait for the next one!

Superb, as always!
If you’ve been following this marvellous series, all you need to know is, the standards have not slipped in any way. If you haven’t read any of the series yet, go back and start from the beginning; you won’t regret it.

Can't get enough!
Kobna and Ben do it again! Thank you! I'm addicted to these characters and the story so please give Peter Grant more adventures. Kobna invents amazing voices and characters that Ben tries to trick him with but I'm always impressed with his accents and dialects from all over the world, bravo!

Addison rivers of London novel, it’s not boring at all and the pronunciation is on point for England
It was nice to return to the Folly after a break. Well written. I wasn’t sure what to expect As far as narration goes sometimes the audible narrators are of a mixed quality. But this fellow did It really well.
