Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
The tables have turned, and now Detective Inspector Cass Jones is a wanted man on the streets of London. Framed for murder and hunted by his former colleagues, Cass needs every ally he can get—including a very unexpected figure from his past.
While detectives Hask and Ramsey search for the killer behind the lethal Strain II virus, Mr. Bright continues to pull strings from the shadows, and there are dire warnings of a final battle that could tear everything apart.
As he searches for his kidnapped nephew while eluding his own pursuers, Cass is determined to find the answers—even if he has to confront the darkest secrets of the history of humanity to do it.

“My thoughts on the end of this trilogy are complicated. On the one hand, I desperately wanted to find out what happened at the end, and the mysteries were all satisfactorily explained, and I felt satisfied by the ending. On the other hand, things were wrapped up rather more easily than I wanted them to be. Cass's quest for vengeance against Mr. Bright was circumvented in a way that was interesting, but wasn't emotionally fulfilling. I liked the note the book ended on, but I tend to resent plots where the resolution falls into the category of "the villain isn't really that bad actually". And I became abruptly aware of how few women there are in the trilogy-- and that all but one of them were either dead or out of the picture by book 3. No queer representation either. None of this is to say that the book wasn't good, or that I don't whole-heartedly recommend the series to fans of sci-fi/fantasy crossovers or things in the "scary plausible future" genre. I really liked it overall, I had a good experience reading it-- which is what ticks this review over from 3 stars to 3.5, rounding up to 4 because of how much I like the series as a whole. Just be aware that the first two books are superior in that they set up a scenario that I find more interesting in theory than the way the third book played out in reality.”
