It's a case of wrong place, very wrong time.For Vimes finds himself back in his own rough, tough past with only a killer for company and a city on the brink of revolution to contend with. But he must survive, because he has a job to do: track down the murderer and change the outcome of the rebellion.And get back to the future before his wife gives birth, of course.All in a day's work ...'The best Discworld book in the whole world ever. Until next time.' SFXNight Watch is the sixth book in the City Watch series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.
