My name is Peter Grant, and I am a keeper of the secret flame -- whatever that is. Truth be told, there's a lot I still don't know. My superior Nightingale, previously the last of England's wizardly governmental force, is trying to teach me proper schooling for a magician's apprentice. But even he doesn't have all the answers. Mostly I'm just a constable sworn to enforce the Queens Peace, with the occasional help from some unusual friends and a well-placed fire blast. With the new year, I have three main objectives, a) pass the detective exam so I can officially become a DC, b) work out what the hell my relationship with Lesley Mai, an old friend from the force and now fellow apprentice, is supposed to be, and most importantly, c) get through the year without destroying a major landmark. Two out of three isnt bad, right? A mutilated body in Crawley means another murderer is on the loose. The prime suspect is one Robert Weil, who may either be a common serial killer or an associate of the twisted magician known as the Faceless Man -- a man whose previous encounters I've barely survived. I've also got a case about a town planner going under a tube train and another about a stolen grimoire. But then I get word of something very odd happening in Elephant and Castle, on a housing estate designed by a nutter, built by charlatans, and inhabited by the truly desperate. If there's a connection to the Crawley case, I'll be entering some tricky waters of juristiction with the local river spirits. We have a prickly history, to say the least. Just the typical day for a magician constable. ** ES Index : 4 Sort on Author : Aaronovitch, Ben All Identifiers : amazon:0756409608, ff:a/ben-aaronovitch/broken-homes, goodreads:18210706, google:HxBPGyDOv00C, isbn:9780756409609 Junk Test ! : 1 Title Post Pound : Broken Homes Words in Author Name: 2 Number of Words in Auth: 2 Formats : EPUB Previous Series Index: 4 Title Pre Pound : Broken Homes Test Compare Series : gt Has Cover : Yes Test Text Series Index: Grant Title Parms BtoH : ( - - Broken Homes - - Broken Homes - - Series Parm B : 4 Number of Authors : 1 Single Author : Ben Aaronovitch Original Source : Mirc New Files Cleanup Title Parm A Prefix : Broken Homes Sorted Author by LN, FN: Aaronovitch, Ben Series Parm A : Peter Grant Number of Author Names: 2 Number of Formats : 1 Calc Series Group : Peter Grant Whole Title : Broken Homes Compare Title Parm A to Author: lt Title Parm D : Broken Homes Num of Aut : 1 Title Parm B : ( Title Suffix : Broken Homes Title Parm A Suffix : Homes Title After First Parm: Broken Homes Record ID : 10142 Enter New Series (Calced): .Peter Grant..4..
