The fog-choked sequel to Poison City, about which Claire North raves, ‘Rarely has policing the apocalypse been so awesome!’
Cop. Drunkard. Low-grade magic user. My name is Gideon Tau, but most people just call me London.
Three years ago, someone killed my daughter. I sacrificed everything to learn his name – and then allowed that knowledge to be erased from my mind.
It was for a good cause: I was saving the world, after all.
But now I have to start over from scratch, with only my boss and my dog to help me find my daughter’s killer. The reanimated corpse of my boss, and my alcoholic, foul-mouthed demonic sidekick dog, that is.
Our journey will take us from Durban, South Africa to London, England.
And once we’re there… well, if things seemed dark before, they’re about to get a lot darker.

Crilley's magical world ain't kid stuff. If you like your spellcraft dangerous, exhilarating, and chillingly double-edged, look no further.
Steeped in sun, sin, whiskey and magic, I devoured Poison City. Rarely has policing the impending apocalypse been so awesome. Sequel now!
A sarcastic, demon-fighting cop with magic dragon tattoos and an alcoholic talking dog as a sidekick... Poison City is everything you never knew you wanted in a book. Buy it now!
An early Tarantino version of an urban fantasy... The war is coming, says the cover; given this first battle, it's going to be one hell of a ride.
A hugely entertaining tale of magic cops, shady monsters and terrifying gods... It's a huge amount of fun
Blazes with pace and wit - Crilley has produced a real page turner
