Publisher's Summary
When the Night Foxes boldly break into the Fourth Precinct’s Evidence Building, it causes quite the stir. The break-in is daring enough, but their method shreds the magical wards and protections on the building like confetti paper. To say the police are ‘alarmed’ by this is the understatement of the century.
As a Magical Examiner, Henri Davenforth is, of course, immediately called in. Quite to his astonishment, Captain Gregson has him work the case like a detective. Even more astounding, he assigns Henri a partner - The Shinigami Detective.
The woman is famous for killing the most destructive rogue witch of the century, and no one is quite certain where she’s from. Every officer in the precinct is either in awe of her, or a little frightened by her. Henri is just baffled. What is he supposed to do with a partner?
Hopefully, killing one witch makes Jamie Edwards enough of an expert on magic to be helpful, as the thieves aren’t content to just break into one building. They, in fact, seem to have an agenda - as with each theft, they take magical objects. It’s all mounting to a dangerously powerful, magical construct, capable of toppling the wards on any building.
And no one has any idea what the thieves true target is.

Awful narration style - ruins a brilliant book
I love this series and am heartbroken by the terrible narration choices of this audiobook.
Two narrators might be okay if they each did alternate chapters but they don’t. Instead, one narrator does most of a chapter and the other narrator injects to speak as other characters. It completely derails the flow of the story. Neither narrator is bad but the style is ghastly.
I am going to return unbearable book and re-purchase it when they put out a better version.

Entertaining
Such a wonderful journey with adventure and laugh out loud moments too. I wish the entire series was on audio.
