Ben Aaronovitch - Foxglove Summer (Rivers of London #5) (2nd Hand Paperback)
Synopsis
Rivers of London #5.
Foxglove Summer is the fifth novel in the Rivers of London series by English author Ben Aaronovitch, published in 2014 by Gollancz.
In the fifth of his bestselling series Ben Aaronovitch takes Peter Grant out of whatever comfort zone he might have found and takes him out of London - to a small village in Herefordshire where the local police are reluctant to admit that there might be a supernatural element to the disappearance of some local children. But while you can take the London copper out of London you can't take the London out of the copper.
Travelling west with Beverley Brook, Peter soon finds himself caught up in a deep mystery and having to tackle local cops and local gods. And what's more all the shops are closed by 4pm . . .

External Reviews
"I continue to love this series. Great main character. Great voice. Great mix of mystery and resolution. Great mix of short and long term story lines. Really, there's nothing here I don't like. And given how critical I can be, I hope you all realize how huge a statement that is coming from me . . ."
"Aaronovitch does the right thing for this series. He takes the main character out of the city, puts some of the ongoing and unanswered questions on the shelf and make Peter Grant shine on his own. The story structure is a marked departure from the first four books but, in my opinion, is one of the best in the series." - Goodreads Reviews.
"This is a book that I can't recommend enough - as I said before, it's a great jump on point for new readers, but it also keeps up the greatness of the previous four novels. Whilst this might be my favourite since the first novel, that doesn't mean the others are rubbish - this just has a little something extra, a little je ne sais pas." - The Cult Den.
"As brilliant and funny as ever" - The Sun.
