At the close of 'The Victoria Vanishes' the Peculiar Crimes Unit were thrust into limbo by the scheming Home Secretary despite solving the case. Now the band is back together again, stumbling over a murder close to London's gateway to Europe a vast development project that doesn't need any adverse publicity with the 2012 Olympics fast approaching. The Home Office require PCU's unique talents but there's a catch.
No computer access or official recognition, rented premises that leak -and may have been used for devil worship - and worse no working toilets. PCU are hunting a killer who has steeped himself in the myths and legends surrounding the King's Cross area and the Old St Pancras Church. The re-formed PCU must have the case solved by the end of the week. It's a question of what will get them first, the killer, the home office or pneumonia.
Bryant and May will return in 'Off the Rails' next year.
