Bryant & May - The Burning Man by Christopher Fowler
At the same time, several members of the PCU team reach dramatic turning points in their lives - but the most personal tragedy is yet to come, for as the race to bring down a cunning killer reaches its climax, Arthur Bryant faces his own devastating day of reckoning. I always said wed go out with a hell of a bang, warns Bryant.
Fabulously unorthodox..Fowler, an unashamed anorak, takes delight in stuffing his books with esoteric facts; together with a cast of splendidly eccentric characters ranging from white witches to unfrocked and potty academics, corkscrew plots, wit, verve and some apposite social commentary, they make for unbeatable fun. -- Laura Wilson * GUARDIAN *
Witty, engaging mix of crime drama and comedy that's also an esoteric history of London. * Sun *
