The Furthest Station

Rivers of London Series, Book 5.5

De: Ben Aaronovitch

Narrado por: Kobna Holdbrook-Smith

There have been ghosts on the London Underground, sad, harmless specters whose presence does little more than give a frisson to traveling and boost tourism. But now there's a rash of sightings on the Metropolitan Line and these ghosts are frightening, aggressive, and seem to be looking for something.

Enter PC Peter Grant, junior member of the Metropolitan Police's Special Assessment Unit, AKA The Folly, AKA the only police officers whose official duties include ghost hunting. Together with Jaget Kumar, his counterpart at the British Transport Police, he must brave the terrifying crush of London's rush hour to find the source of the ghosts.

Joined by Peter's wannabe wizard cousin, a preschool river god, and Toby the ghost hunting dog, their investigation takes a darker tone as they realize that a real person's life might just be on the line.

And time is running out to save them.

A fun low stakes mystery

Loved it! No major Peter Grant jeopardy but a good ghost story and a little Abigail. I love seeing her in the stories.

Imagination Supreme

Once again, Aaronovitch brings his world of magic, fairies, wizards, ghosts and the Metropolitan Police Department’s finest to solve a case of abduction using police procedural and the powerful unseen forces of spirit, connection and love.

Love this authors books

The characters in this book are well developed. Would love to see more. I may have listened to all of them.

Excellent supernatural police procedural

One of the wittiest and most interesting crime series, but probably best to start at the beginning with Rivers of London aka Midnight Riot. Only criticism is that it is a bit short.

Jack Reacher meets Harry Potter

great story, fantastic narration. perfect for when you need a break from current world problems
