Martin Chorley, aka the Faceless Man, wanted for multiple counts of murder, fraud and crimes against humanity, has been unmasked and is on the run.
Peter Grant, Detective Constable and apprentice wizard, now plays a key role in an unprecedented joint operation to bring Chorley to justice.
But even as the unwieldy might of the Metropolitan Police bears down on its foe, Peter uncovers clues that Chorley, far from being finished, is executing the final stages of a long term plan.
A plan that has its roots in London's two thousand bloody years of history, and could literally bring the city to its knees.
To save his beloved city Peter's going to need help from his former best friend and colleague - Lesley May - who brutally betrayed him and everything he thought she believed in. And, far worse, he might even have to come to terms with the malevolent supernatural killer and agent of chaos known as Mr Punch . .
Ben Aaronovitch (1964) es un escritor y guionista británico de gran éxito entre el público, conocido por su trabajo en series como Jupiter Moon, Casualty o la célebre obra de culto de ciencia ficción Doctor Who. El árbol del ahorcado es la sexta entrega de la exitosa serie de fantasía urbana Ríos de Londres, best seller del Sunday Times; una deliciosa novela que mezcla a la perfección la narrativa policíaca y el thriller con la literatura fantástica en un Londres mágico, original y cautivador.
