Proven Guilty Av Jim Butcher

<p>Meet Harry Dresden, Chicago''s first (and only) Wizard P.I. Turns out the ''everyday'' world is full of strange and magical things - and most of them don''t play well with humans. That''s where Harry comes in.<br><br>Harry has no friends on the White Council of Wizards, who find him brash and undisciplined (and they may have a point). However, now vampire wars have thinned out the wizards a little, they need him. So before he can blink, he''s assigned to investigate rumours of black magic. Harry''s other problem is an old friend''s daughter - all grown-up and in trouble already. Her boyfriend insists he''s innocent of something resembling a crime straight out of a horror film. This first impression turns out to be . . . well, pretty accurate, as Harry discovers malevolent entities feeding on fear. All in a day''s work for a wizard, his dog, and a talking skull named Bob.<br><br>Magic - it can get a guy killed.</p>
