'The Oversight is most dangerous when most reduced. There are many dead and gone who did not remember that.'
The Oversight of London has been sworn for millennia to prevent the natural and the supernatural worlds from preying on each other.
Now at its lowest ebb, with its headquarters destroyed and its last members scattered far and wide, this secret society will battle for survival and face the harshest foe it has ever met: itself.

Review:
Exciting, exhilarating, scary and moving in equal measure, The Oversight is a teeming world of dark deeds and dark magics, brilliantly realised. This feels like the start of something amazing (Mike Carey)
A dark and glinting book . . . told in a kind of compelling and hypnotic poesie that I just lapped up . . . I'll certainly be reading the next one (Cory Doctorow on The Oversight BoingBoing.net)
A highly entertaining fantasy that promises a trilogy worth sinking your teeth into (SciFiNow on The Oversight)
Fletcher's Victorian London is juicily vivid, and laced with macabre Dickensian wit. There's a real sense of grim danger, both natural and unnatural, hungrily awaiting the slightest mis-step (Frances Hardinge on The Oversight)
Richly atmospheric (the evil lurks in the background of every paragraph), the book should be a big hit with supernatural-fantasy readers ... the second book can't come soon enough (Booklist (starred review for The Oversight))
A richly atmospheric and intensely readable slice of Victoriana, with a splendidly eerie sense of the way the unearthly lies cheek-by-jowl with the mundane (Adam Roberts on The Oversight)
A remarkable combination of British folklore, brisk pacing and wide-ranging imagination (Kirkus Reviews on The Oversight)
Utterly enthralling: Charles Dickens meets Susanna Clarke (Lou Morgan)
The Paradox serves to provide us with fantastically dark characters, goodies and baddies, as well as some rather unexpected alliances (Time Out)
The Paradox is the real deal, darkly dusted Dickensian counter mythology at its very best. (SF Site)
