|video=|summary=A mysterious red object, a cursed friend and a set of powerful, unscrupulous enemies. Sometimes Camden shop owner and diviner, Alex Verus, wishes he hadn't got out of bed. He may be able to see into the future, but occasionally it would be useful to know what to do about it.Benedict Jacka popped into Bookbag Towers to [[The Interview: Bookbag Talks To Benedict Jacka|chat to us]].|cover=0356500241|aznuk=0356500241|aznus=B0068PHXVA

Alex Verus runs a little shop in Camden, London selling magic tricks and bits and pieces. Some of the bits and pieces are a more magical than the magic tricks, for he is a diviner (someone who sees the future). Indeed, the day that his friend Luna finds a little red artefact, his ability comes in handy. There are some very powerful people looking for that little red 'thing'. Unfortunately they aren't powerful in a nice way and they're a jump or two ahead of Alex and Luna. For the powerful ones actually know what it is.
If you've enjoyed this, then try something from [[:Category:Jim Butcher|Jim Butcher's Dresden Files]] perhaps [[Proven Guilty (Dresden Case Files) by Jim Butcher|Proven Guilty]]. If you enjoy urban fantasy but want to try something different, but similarly humorous, try [[Dead Men's Boots: A Felix Castor Novel by Mike Carey]].
