Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Another gripping and hilarious adventure through the secret streets of London. A tour of what remains and an insight into what once was with a liberal sprinkling of folklore, myth and violent crime. Every one of the previous novels in Ben Aaronovitch's series about Peter Grant has made the top ten of the <em>Sunday Times</em>' hardback bestsellers' list, and <em>The Hanging Tree</em> looks set to repeat the feat. The 'Hanging Tree' was the old colloquial term for the Tyburn gallows, which stood where Marble Arch now stands. Along Oxford Street, the last trip was taken by the condemned. Some things don't change. The place has a bloody and haunted legacy — and now blood has returned to the empty Mayfair mansions of the world's super-rich. And blood, mixed with magic, becomes a job for Peter Grant. Peter Grant is back, as are Nightingale <em>et al</em> at the Folly and the various river gods, ghosts and spirits who attach themselves to England's last wizard and the Met's reluctant investigator of all things supernatural.
