Highly recommended to anyone liking their crime mysteries with a mix of somewhat atypical urban fantasy. All three books are available now in print form from UK publishers and via importers. One person found this helpful. A Matter of Blood really worked for me when it was a police procedural and didn't focus on the supernatural aspects. Which in this novel was most of the time.

The Powder Mage trilogy

The supernatural elements are there, but they do not take over the story. For the most part is a about a cop who has been framed for a murder trying to clear his name, and solve two other cases at the same time. Cass Jones is the main character. At first he comes across as a typical cop "who doesn't play by the rules," but there's more to Cass. He has some skeletons in his closet that may just come out of the closet and pull him down to Hell. There are supernatural elements to the novel, but they are in the background.

While this book does have a satisfying conclusion it also sets up mysteries for the next books in the series, which I'm looking forward to reading this year. The novel opens on the scene of a corpse squirming with maggots.

The protagonist is Detective Inspector Cass Jones, who works in the Paddington Green precinct of a near-future London as of the time the book was published subtly different from the one in the real world. Cass is finely drawn: It seems that only his sergeant, Claire May, has any regard for him. Cass has been assigned to the latest serial-killer murder; this is the fourth victim in two months. The cases are sufficiently all-consuming, but when a personal tragedy intervenes, Cass comes close to being overwhelmed.

About midway through the book, though, Pinborough begins to make explicit what she has merely been hinting at thus far, and the supernatural takes a role in the events swirling about Cass. As a longtime mystery reader, especially one with a love for English mysteries, I was entranced by this novel from the outset.

As a longtime horror reader, I quickly recognized that Pinborough was dealing with horrors worse than those humans inflict on one another. Pinborough skillfully deploys the science fictional elements of the near-future effects of the Great Recession with the police procedural set in the nitty gritty world of police work with the horrors that can only be wreaked by ancient gods fighting one another, and the forces of entropy, for their very survival.

It is, however, largely self-contained. Turn off the phone, lock the doors, leave the lights on, and read; once Pinborough captures you, you are enthralled to the end.
