Rivers of London: Night Witch is the second of seven (at time of writing) collected volumes of the Rivers of London comic book. This time we're treated to some fleshing out of one of the more interesting side-characters, Varvara Sidorovna Tamonina, the Russian magic user first seen in Whispers Under Ground.
The plot of the volume covers the daughter of Russian tycoon Nestor Yakunin being kidnapped, apparently by a Leshy, a creature from the forests of his homeland - a long way from Kent where the kidnapping occurred.
Aaronovitch and Cartmel have succeeded in their endeavour to flesh out the world of PC Peter Grant with an engaging tale enhanced by the art work from Lee Sullivan.
As before it's not necessary to read this volume but it will make your experience of the River of London somewhat deeper.
