The Girl From a Thousand Fathoms (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781917435222)

Tim Wassiter, P.I. isn't a cynical old-school detective with a bottle in the desk, he's the new-age version with chickens, tea - and a little bit of magic. His ex-partner scoffs, the old lady down the road just wants him to find her missing cat, but Tim knows that magic works. He's seen the proof and he's learning to use it to solve crimes.

Money's tight but now he has his first real case. But what sounds like easy money isn't as simple as it seems. The mysterious woman who hired him has dangerous friends and they're rapidly losing patience. Tim needs to discover what's really going on, and fast. Soon there's an even more mysterious woman, a series of increasingly strange events, and a great many more cats.

As things get more violent, more bewildering and more utterly weird, Tim discovers that this case goes far deeper than he could ever have imagined. Everything is connected, even the past and the future, and everyone is looking for a girl who almost certainly does not exist.

And magic isn't just real, it's probably going to get him killed.
