Foxglove Summer

Poor Peter has to leave the city for the COUNTRYSIDE!

There is a case of some missing children in the Herefordshire countryside and as there is a retired practitioner living nearby standard operational procedure for The Folly is to have a look at them to see if they may be involved.

After Peter has a chat with Hugh Oswald and ruling him out he volunteers to help the local police if he can.

and this is where the wheels come off once more…

Not much to do with the Faceless Man arc but building more history for Nightingale, showing Peter’s development, strengthening his and Bev’s relationship and having a great deal of fun we are introduced to things which reflect on Molly and her possible origin.

and as always the demi monde is expanded with links, obligations, and possible genesis for a River being part of the story.

This story went at a cracking pace and I sort of want to see more of this part of British magic.

Another great read in my marathon reread of The Rivers of London universe.
