Colin Blaze was in Hyde Park looking for pixies when he is arrested on suspicion of possession of kittens. Stunned, Blaze goes with the police officers willing. Thus started a case that was strange even by Colin Blaze’s standards.

Colin Blaze is a (possibly private) detective cursed by a witch to have only cases that no right-thinking person would ever believe were real. The witch hoped that Blaze would be discredited and forced to quit. Instead, Blaze is the champion of the bizarre and marginalised oddities of London.
