The Hanging Tree

In "The Hanging Tree," Peter Grant, London's only magical police apprentice, finds himself entangled in a new, high-stakes supernatural investigation that pulls him into the opulent and dangerous world of the city's super-rich. What begins as a seemingly routine suspicious death at an exclusive party in one of London's most expensive apartment blocks quickly escalates when Peter discovers a connection to Lady Ty, the powerful goddess of the Tyburn river, to whom he owes a significant favor. Plunged into a realm where old money dictates its own laws and ancient magic intertwines with modern privilege, Peter must navigate treacherous social circles and powerful entities. As he uncovers dark secrets lurking beneath the gilded façade, Peter risks alienating allies and making powerful new enemies. This case challenges his understanding of both magic and justice, forcing him to confront the grim reality that in this world, some lives are valued far more than others, and even a seasoned wizard might not survive the week.
