Step into a London lit up by the Elemental spirits: the fiery Dragons, the airy Fumis, the watery Chads and the earthbound Magogs. Marisee and Robert the Elemental Detectives are back to solve another mystery on the streets of eighteenth-century London. An orchestra explodes in Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens and suddenly the music of London disappears ... and a terrifying monster stirs off the Greenwich peninsular, threatening to trample London underfoot. The detectives must track down the thief behind the music's disappearance via the Whispering Gallery of St Paul's Cathedral, a Windmill-with-teeth on the Isle of Dogs and the dark streets of Soho ... where a shadowy villain and his mechanical animal spies live.

8-12 years old.
