    Summary

    Probationary Constable Peter Grant met me for the first time when I walked up to him by the portico of the Actors' Church on a freezing winter night and said, "Hello. What are you up to?" However, I first met Detective Sergeant Peter Grant when he jogged up to my doorstep on a mild autumn afternoon and said, "There you are, sir. It is you, isn't it?"

    Summary

    HALF LIGHT [Easy: Success] — You’re never Harrier at work, just like you’re never Detective at home. You’re in trouble.

    CHESTER MCLAINE: “Uh oh!” the sergeant singsongs from where he’s sitting with his feet up on his desk.

    KIM KITSURAGI: “Oh, I have your attention now?” he asks. His tone sounds casual, almost friendly.

    HALF LIGHT [Easy: Success] — It’s not either of those things.

    Summary

    Three-and-one-third bodies have been found in an abandoned vehicle on the riverbank.

    It would be a challenging case even without the bad weather, weapons smuggling, white nationalists, industrial accidents, and the concept of pedigree dog breeds—but over it all hangs one troubling question: What is it that fascinates you about Kim Kitsuragi? Is it working class camaraderie? A sinister hex of mysterious origin? Did you imprint on him in Martinaise, like an amnesiac duckling? If you don’t figure out what’s going on soon, people are going to start to notice. Especially him.

    And sooner or later? Everything is related to the case.

    Summary

    The Bachelor—man of science, child of the capital—has no ritual in him. No way to excise the growing tumor in his heart. Artemy should have seen it building. Expected something drastic. No ritual, but he doesn’t lack for drama.

    “Oynon.” Artemy reaches for him. The Bachelor finally looks up.

    (the Bachelor has realized that this is all a farce. the Haruspex helps him through it.)
