Foxglove Summer<\/em>, Audio Edition<\/a> (2014) Ben Aaronovitch<\/a> narrated by Kobna Holdbrook-Smith<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The fifth Rivers of London book.<\/p>\n

Lesley is gone. Peter is a mess, but doesn’t realize it. So Nightingale sends him out to the country.<\/p>\n

If I\u2019d been about four ranks higher up the hierarchy I\u2019d have regarded it as an opportunity to realize additional intelligence assets through enhanced stakeholder engagement. But I\u2019m just a constable so I didn\u2019t.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As an architect Erith might have been a progressive classicist, but he shared with his contemporaries the same failure to understand that you need to be able to open the oven door without having to leave the kitchen first.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

When dealing with the law, having a mysterious past is contraindicated.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The problem was that once the government pushed through its major cuts in policing, a lot of officers had got the notion that they might be able to unload anything even vaguely weird onto us. <\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough it is noticeable,\u201d Nightingale had pointed out, \u201cthat this never happens if the officer concerned has worked with us before.\u201d <\/p>\n

All your cases, I thought, do not belong to us.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I asked what the weapon had been like. <\/p>\n

\u201cAt least sixty centimeters long, circular cross section and tapering to a sharp point,\u201d said Dr. Walid. \u201cPossibly a spiral configuration.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLike a narwhale\u2019s horn?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cAye,\u201d said Dr. Walid. \u201cJust like that.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cSo you think it\u2019s a unicorn?\u201d \u201c<\/p>\n

I wouldn\u2019t like to jump to conclusions,\u201d he said. \u201cNot without more evidence.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cBut?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cIf you achieve nothing else,\u201d he said, \u201cget me a tissue sample.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This series is so fun. And I utterly adore Kobna Holdbrook Smith.<\/p>\n
