Doyle returns to London having been wounded in Afghanistan by a Fallen, and finds himself lodging in Baker Street with the enigmatic angel Crow. But living with a rogue angel is not so easy; the pair find themselves drawn into the supernatural and criminal worlds of London, from a man kidnapped by a vampire nest to Jack the Ripper's horrific murders.

"A new Katherine Addison book is a cause for celebration. Break out the champagne, this one's a treat!" -- Ellen Klages, author of Passing Strange, winner of the British Fantasy Award and World Fantasy Award "Each book Addison writes is a highly-polished and gorgeously set gem. The Angel of Crows is no exception." -- Fran Wilde, Nebula-winning, Hugo and World Fantasy Nominated author of Updraft and The Fire Opal Mechanism What a delightful reimagining of the detectives of Baker Street and the London they inhabit. This tale takes flight in ways that are dark and rich and wholly unexpected. Quite simply, I loved it. JOHN SCALZI The Angel of the Crows is an entertaining ridea compelling fantasy mystery set in an alternate but startlingly familiar Victorian London. Youve been here beforenot. Tim Powers
