5. 'Carnival Row', 2019-2023

The story is set in a world that is almost identical to our own, except for one thing: centaurs, fairies, and other fauns roam the streets alongside people wearing crinolines and hats.

The main characters are Inspector Philostrate and his former lover, the rebellious fairy Vignette, who take on the investigation.
