Probationary Constable Peter Grant finds himself at a crossroads in his career as he navigates the bustling streets of London with a unique set of challenges. His aspirations of becoming a detective seem increasingly distant after being assigned mundane duties that hardly reflect his ambition. However, a chance encounter with a ghostly witness to a crime thrusts him into a world where the ordinary meets the extraordinary, revealing layers of supernatural intrigue hidden within the city he thought he knew so well.
As Peter delves deeper into this mystical realm, he uncovers secrets of London's rivers and the ancient deities that inhabit them. With a newfound mentor, he begins to blend his police work with the supernatural, leading him on thrilling investigations that blur the lines between reality and magic. Each case pulls him further into a shadowy underbelly, where danger lurks, and the very fabric of London itself is at stake.
