Redsmith, Andy Inspector Paris Mystery. #bk. 1

Read by John Last

When the victim is fifteen centimetres tall and has wings, even a hardened detective knows this case won't follow the rules. Inspector Nick Paris believes in facts, not fairytales. But when a murdered fairy turns up in the middle of Manchester, he's dragged into a hidden world of magic, mayhem, and mythical creatures with attitude problems. Soon he's sheltering dwarves, dodging demons, and trying not to take career advice from a chain-smoking, talking crow. As the barriers between realms begin to crumble, Nick must face the unthinkable: magic is real - and it's seriously messing with his city. A darkly comic, fast-paced mystery where urban grit meets the supernatural - perfect for fans of Ben Aaronovitch and Benedict Jacka
