Summary

• Combat Magician William Gravel is back in a new series full of bad juju.
  Gravel finally escapes his deniable ops in the USA and is able to return to this
  home in London. But before he can even settle in, he gets sucked into a horrific
  child mutilation investigation. Because this child was killed in a very specific
  way, it was a muti-killing designed to bring powerful magic to someone. And if
  Gravel can't stop him, many more children will die to create a black magician
  with very strong medicine.
