London constable and sorcerer's apprentice Peter Grant hears the notes of an old jazz standard rising from a dead body - a sure sign it wasn't death by natural causes. A pattern of similar deaths in and around Soho points him to a deadly magical menace - one that leads right to his own doorstep, and the squandered promise of a young jazz muscian: his dad.
Recommended by Elizabeth: Magic + police procedural in modern-day London with lots of action, a decidedly British sense of humor, and a refreshingly diverse cast of characters.
