Thomas Nightingale is a man of immense power, one of the most highly revered magicians in Europe, but with a guarded past. Recently, Detective Constable Peter Grant has uncovered a brief glimpse into his mentor’s history, hidden in the Folly’s archives. In October 1957, Nightingale was reunited with an old friend from the war, Angus Strallen. The pair both survived the conflict, returning to Britain to pursue careers in law enforcement, which led Strallen to London; he was pursuing a serial killer. The man in question was one Professor Uwe Fischer, a Luftwaffe pilot turned boffin at a factory in Strallen’s neck of the woods, Cumberland. Fischer was preying on young women, and Strallen had some evidence to suggest that he was using more than physical power to commit these crimes. He knew of only one man who could help him. It was up to the pair of old friends to work together and apprehend Fischer before he had the chance to strike again.
October 1957. Thomas Nightingale, Chief Inspector and wizarding legend, reunited with an old friend he met during the Second World War. The friend, Angus Strallen, was in pursuit of a serial killer, Professor Uwe Fischer, a Luftwaffe pilot who settled in Cumberland after the war to work in a factory. Fischer had been targeting women of different cultures which led him – and Strallen – to the cultural melting pot of London. Seemingly always one step ahead of the Metropolitan Police, Fischer kept evading capture, putting his own magical powers and good political relations to use. But as the German scientists read American comic books in his hotel room, Strallen’s partner in crime (and romance), Dr. Jacqueline Frye, acquired a very helpful package from Fischer’s home in Cumberland which was soon on its way to London: a scarf. Paired with the powerful nose of a bloodhound named Hesperus, Nightingale and Strallen’s hunt for Fischer is afoot…
From the outside, there’s nothing especially unusual about one particular building nestled amongst a neat row of tall Georgian terraced houses in Russell Square, London. An unsuspecting passer-by certainly wouldn’t know that it’s home to a Special Operations Unit working for London’s Metropolitan Police, specializing in all things magic. Nor would they know that tucked safely inside the building is a library chock-full of filing cabinets, each one packed with case files documenting the magical division’s history. In charge of this building (known as The Folly) is Thomas Nightingale, the ranking officer of the SOU and one of the most powerful magicians in Europe, whose work for the Met dates back as far as the British Colonial Empire. A private man, his wizarding-trainee, Detective Constable Peter Grant, has long prodded him for stories from his career. Now, Peter is about to uncover some of his mentor’s elusive past…
Peter Grant has being doing some research on an old case in the annexe of the Folly’s library. He has discovered that his mentor, Thomas Nightingale, befriended a man named Angus Strallen during the Second World War after Strallen witnessed Nightingale fell an enemy aircraft with a wave of his hand. The pair were reunited in October 1957 as they attempted to track down a dangerous murderer who targeted women: one Professor Uwe Fischer. The ex-Luftwaffe-pilot-turned-scientist remained one step ahead of Nightingale and Strallen at every turn, seemingly surrounded by powerful allies. With the detectives hot on his trail after his attempted murder of Asterid Bivalacqua, Fischer decided to leave London and head back to Cumbria. But returning to his day job at Windscale, an atomic reactor plant in the North West, could prove to be even more deadly for the unsuspecting people of Britain…
