A man throwing himself into the gorilla pit of London Zoo triggers a rash of grisly suicides that have the authorities baffled.


It’s time to call in Fletcher & Fletcher, the city’s original working-class stiffs, except the undead detectives are having problems of their own…

A rift has formed between the Fletcher boys that is forcing them to question whether their brotherly bond is as strong as they thought. A rift that, left unchecked, might spell the end of their partnership.

Despite growing tensions, the detectives join the dots between the suicides and discover a sinister influence using occult means to convince people take their own lives. But can they root out the twisted puppeteer before more bodies are added to the pile?

Only with the help of a short-fused homicide detective, the surly proprietor of a magic shop, and a gender fluid shapeshifter, do the Fletcher boys stand any chance of pulling this one off.

Mystery, the macabre, and caustic wit collide in this bizarre noir. Fans of Ben Aaronovitch, Mike Carey, and Benedict Jacka will love this page-turning detective story with a paranormal twist.
