'A bloodcap, an angelus and a Jack Russell terrier.
They're all I had by me to face mortal combat with the Queen of the Ælves.
I'd be dead in minutes...'
The historic streets of Edinburgh hide a parallel realm of shadowy killers, vicious ælves and deranged shades. All that stands between them and the unsuspecting populace are a daemon called Archer and the group of angelii he's feuding with.
Drew Macleod is caught in the middle. Someone, somewhere is hunting him. But why? Delving deeper into this parallel realm, Drew finds allies in a feisty herbalist, an ancient creature in disguise and an old clock-maker - but are any of them really who they seem to be?
Touchpaper takes us on an exciting journey in the footsteps of
Neverwhere
and
Rivers of London
