I Read Books: Foxglove Summer
Peter Grant, magic policeman, returns and goes out to the country on the trail of a pair of missing girls. Initially it looks like a regular non-magic case and he’s just checking a local retired wizard. But weird things are occurring, it’s a hotspot for UFO sightings and inevitably he finds things get odd.
Out of London the plot can move on without having to check in with all the regular weirdos back in the city, and so gives some room for Grant to move on his personal story, as well as learning something about rivers and their guardians. But mostly it’s about wandering about the countryside trying to find out what’s going on and also trying to find a pub or café that doesn’t have a genealogy for their sausages.
