Hugo Award-winning author Charles Stross presents the next case in The
Laundry Files. Dominique O’Brien - her friends call her Mo - lives a
curious double life with her husband, Bob Howard. To the average civilian,
they’re boring middle-aged civil servants. But within the labyrinthian
secret circles of Her Majesty’s government, they’re operatives working
for the nation’s occult security service known as the Laundry, charged
with defending Britain against dark supernatural forces threatening
humanity.

Mo’s latest assignment is assisting the police in containing an unusual
outbreak: ordinary citizens suddenly imbued with extraordinary abilities
of the superpowered kind. Unfortunately these people prefer playing
superpranks instead of superheroics. The mayor of London being levitated
by a dumpy man in Trafalgar Square would normally be a source of shared
amusement for Mo and Bob, but they’re currently separated because something’s
come between them - something evil. An antique violin, an Erich Zann
original, made of human white bone, was designed to produce music capable
of slaughtering demons. Mo is the custodian of this unholy instrument.
It invades her dreams and yearns for the blood of her colleagues - and
her husband. And despite Mo’s proficiency as a world-class violinist,
it cannot be controlled….

What the Critics Say

“A weirdly alluring blend of super-spy thriller, deadpan comic fantasy,
and Lovecraftian horror.” (Kirkus Reviews)
