Mystery Police Procedural
The Peculiar Crimes Unit is no more. After years of
defying the odds and infuriating their embarrassed
superiors, detectives Arthur Bryant and John May have at
last crossed the line. This is the twenty-first century
and not even their eccentric genius or phenomenal success
rate solving London’s most unusual crimes can save them.
While Bryant takes to his bed, his bathrobe, and his
esoteric books, the rest of the team take to the streets
looking for new careers—leading one of them to stumble
upon a gruesome murder. It isn’t so much the discovery of the headless corpse
that’s potentially so politically explosive as where it’s
found. Still it takes the bizarre sightings of a great
horned creature—half man, half stag—carrying off young
women to convince Bryant that this is a case worth getting
dressed and leaving the house to solve. The Home Office
has reluctantly authorized the PCU to reunite for one last
encore performance—in a rented office with no computer
network, no legal authority, and a broken toilet. They’ve
got until the end of the week to solve a murder with
unlikely links to gangland crime, Slavic mythology, the
2012 London Olympics, and the sort of corruption only
obscene amounts of money and power can buy. It’s the kind of case that Bryant and May live to solve—
and it could be just the case that kills them.
