"The latest adventure of London cop Peter Grant... Grant is part of a very special London police unit. Full-time cop and part-time wizard, he works on rather unusual crimes--those that involve magic and the general weirdness that permeates London's dark underbelly. His latest case begins with a perfectly innocent car on a homicidal killing spree--without a driver. But then, before you know it, there's a Bosnian refugee, the Most Haunted Car in England, a bunch of teenagers loaded on Ketamine and a seemingly-harmless wooden bench with the darkest of pasts..."--Back cover.
