The Rook by Daniel O'Malley

Dear me, the body you are wearing used to be mine...


How would you feel if your first memory was a soggy London park surrounded by dead people-wearing gloves. You would be even more confused if the old you knew this was coming and had been preparing for it for months. That's what confronts Myfanwy Thomas who-before her memories were wiped-was one of the most able administrators of Her Majesty's Supernatural Secret Service, a Rook. Will forearming Myfanwy help her to avoid impending doom? Should she really have listened to that duck?

That's really all the premise you need, O'Malley has created the love child of Hogwarts, Torchwood, Dr Who and Monty Python, I really hope there's more where this came from.
