#63 Lies Sleeping by Ben Aaronovitch

This book is the showdown on the Faceless Man. The Met has geared up and given the Folly all it needs to bring him in. If you haven’t read any of the comics that go along with the series, there are several nods to the various stories but nothing that will completely leave you scratching your head. Everything that has gone on before in the series gets mentioned almost in passing as if to remind the reader what has happened before. There will be more books in the series, but I think this one shuts down the first story arc in this setting. I don’t want to really give anything away with the plot but everything is moving as fast as it can in the book and yet there are times of a bit of quiet that almost lets everyone catch their breath as they wait to see what the Faceless Man will do next.
