As the first Torchwood book I've ever read (yet seen the 3 series), it gave a perfect insight into Torchwood, revealing a tiny hint into Jack and Ianto's lives.
The book was well written and was very thought through.
It contained characters we know from the series, and a bright new contrast in ones we don't.
It is mostly about Ianto and Jack, with previews of Toshiko, Owen and Gwen.
I would read the book again, definately.
5 stars!

Torchwood is a fantastic seris this book is one of my favourites It starts of in Cardiff during autumn - the days are getting shorter, the dark evenings settling in. There's a part of Cardiff that no one goes to much. No crime, no murders, just they stay away. A collection of old rundown houses and gloomy streets. Something's not quite right there, something is off-kilter. Except now, the Council are renovating the area. And a new company have been employed to do this. And look: they're going to organize street parties to show off the gentrified area. Clown and face-painters for the kids, street magicians for the adults. None of this is Torchwood's problem. Except that Tosh recognizes the man sponsoring the street parties when she's passing one day: Bills Manger!
