Synopsis
Reeling from a catastrophic internal attack, the Laundry—Britain’s secret occult intelligence agency—faces a new crisis: ordinary citizens across the UK are spontaneously developing devastating superpowers. Appointed as official liaison to a bewildered police force, field agent Dr. Dominique "Mo" O'Brien must manage bureaucratic turf wars, hostile politicians, and the emerging threat of a mysterious extortionist called Dr. Freudstein. Worse, Mo’s marriage is fracturing, and the demonic bone violin she wields as a weapon is starting to turn against her.
