*Starred Review* Old age can't stop cantankerous detectives Arthur Bryant and John May, the most senior members of London's Peculiar Crimes Unit. The quirky division, whose unorthodox methods have long made it the bane of the city's Metropolitan Police force, takes pride in tackling fiendishly clever crimes. Their latest doozy of a case concerns the murder of a controversial performance artist whose body was placed in her latest works of art: a 12-foot-high tank of liquid containing six aborted fetuses. Absentminded throwbacks Bryant and May make a most amusing pair: May, whose weakness for married women is rivaled only by his adoration for his agoraphobic granddaughter, and Bryant, disheveled, disorganized, and devoted to peculiar sources, including practitioners of black magic.
