The Water Room by Christopher Fowler
Once again, I felt like I had read this book before except for the barest outlines. It was better than the first book in the series, but not a significant amount. Bryant and May are called upon to solve the mysterious death of an Pakistani women in a forgotten corner of Camden. She lived in one of eight distinct houses but the deaths continue to pile up. There is also the matter of one of May's friends who is looking into the lost Rivers of London. There was a lot of talk about the Fleet River. I get a lot of this from Ben Aaronovich's series about the Rivers of London so the discourse on all the rivers flowing underneath London was not a big revelation.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
