I just got my copy of the latest Rivers of London novella. This one isn't, strictly speaking, a Rivers of London. The book steps well back in time into the 1920s. Nightingale travels to New York City to trace the source of a magic saxophone. Here he meets the world of Harlem and Jazz. He doesn't meet any of the river gods of New York. I don't think that the book is quite up to the standard of Aaronovitch's earlier works, but it is a fairly good read in any case. Note: My copy of the book is a collectable. It is signed and numbered. I didn't realize that until I got it. Bill
