‘My favourite new urban fantasy series, clever and twisty and deliciously magical, with a shivery sense of wonder that feels utterly grounded in its London setting. Perfect for fans of Ben Aaronovitch, Genevieve Cogman or Robert Galbraith!’

I cannot wait to read more about Lydia so I'm delighted that this will be a series and that there will be more stories about the Crow family.
