Na het donker de bel luiden en wachten achter de ijzeren lijn. Griezels en geesten pas op! Lockwood & Co is terug! Dankzij hun spectaculaire succes met de Schreeuwende Wenteltrap is Lockwood & Co nu een van de meest gevraagde bureaus voor paranormaal onderzoek in Londen. Hun nieuwe zaak begint op een geplaagd kerkhof, waar de ijzeren grafkist van een sinistere arts wordt opgegraven. Zoals gewoonlijk is Lockwood vol vertrouwen over de afloop. En zoals gewoonlijk gaat alles fout: er komt een huiveringwekkende geest vrij en er wordt een raadselachtig, magisch voorwerp uit de kist gestolen. Anthony, George en Lucy moeten het object terugvinden voor de verwoestende krachten ervan worden ontketend. Het is een race tegen de klok waarbij ze op de hielen worden gezeten door hun gehate rivalen van Bureau Fittes. Lukt het ze het complot te onthullen?

"With the help of some unexpected, and rather ghostly, allies, Lockwood & Co. must battle their greatest enemy yet, as they move ever closer to the moment when the earth-shattering secret of 'the problem' will finally be revealed"--

Lucy has left Lockwood & Co. A freelance operative, she is hiring herself out to other agencies - agencies that might value her ever-improving skills. But now Lockwood needs her help. Penelope Fittes, leader of the well-renowned Fittes Agency wants Lockwood & Co. - and only them - to locate and remove the 'Source' for the legendary Brixton Cannibal. It's a tough assignment. Made worse by the tensions between Lucy and the other agents - even the skull is treating her like a jilted lover! What will it take to reunite the team? Black marketeers, an informant ghost, a Spirit Cape that transports the wearer, and mysteries involving their closest rivals may just do the trick. But not all is at it seems. And it's not long before a shocking revelation rocks Lockwood & Co. to its very core . . . 'Stroud is a genius' - Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson series.

Jonathan Stroud's critically-acclaimed and best-selling fantasy novels are sure to become classics. For the first time, readers can collect the complete trilogy in paperback, handsomely packaged.    

Set in a fractured, dystopian future England, this fast-paced fantasy adventure concludes a thrilling series. Readers can expect an engaging blend of action and intrigue as the narrative unfolds, showcasing the author's signature style. The story promises to deliver a gripping finale, filled with unexpected twists and a richly developed world that fans of the genre will appreciate.

Now a major Netflix series from the production company of Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead) and Joe Cornish (Attack the Block) 'The Screaming Staircase?' Lockwood edged forward in his chair. 'Please, Mr Fairfax, tell us more.' For more than fifty years, Britain has been terrorised by an epidemic of murderous ghosts. A number of Psychic Investigations Agencies have sprung up to destroy them - with mixed results . . . Lucy Carlyle, a talented young agent, arrives in London hoping to begin a shining new chapter in her career. Instead she finds herself joining Lockwood & Co., the most ramshackle agency in the city, whose ineptitude is matched only by the charisma of its owner. But Lockwood & Co. have one last chance for redemption. All they have to do is spend the night in one of the most haunted houses in England . . . and come out alive. The first book in an amazingly addictive, binge-worthy series, this is an electrifying, witty and brilliantly spooky thriller, perfect for fans of Rivers of London and Good Omens.

Lockwood & Co. might be the smallest (some might say shambollic) Psychic Detection Agency in London. But its three agents - Lockwood, Lucy and George - are exceptional Talents. And they get results. When an outbreak of ghostly phenomena grows to terrifying levels in Chelsea, Scotland Yard is left baffled. Even more baffling is that Lockwood & Co appear to have been excluded from the huge team of Agents investigating the Chelsea Outbreak. Surely this is the perfect chance for them to show once and for all that they're actually the best in town? Well, that's if they can put aside their personal differences for long enough to march into action with their rapiers, salt and iron . . .

Scarlett McCain and Albert Browne have outwitted their pursuers and escaped into the wilderness once more, and it's not long before they become famous for their audacious heists across the Seven Kingdoms. Yet neither is fully able to escape the shackles of the past - as they discover when a dangerous job turns sour

Three years on from the events in The Golem's Eye, the magicians' rule in London is teetering on a knife-edge, with strikes, riots and general unrest. The Prime Minister is largely controlled by two advisors, one of whom is 17-year-old Nathaniel. Meanwhil
