It's about a computational demonologist who begins fieldwork for an offshoot of the SOE and has to deal with something unpleasant in Amsterdam.
Kind of Ian Fleming meets H P Lovecraft with large doses of cynicism and sarcasm.

Stross is very good about putting the shorter stories out there free.

In other news, if I see that woman make that stupid blowy-hand-movement action at the end of that Always advert again, I'm going to make her eat a packet of the bloody things. See how bloody absorbent they are now.

I'd like to say "Well I bloody well hope you washed your hands!" It's just not cricket is it?
Personally I would like to see everyone involved with/in adverts involving a choir ... especially the Halifax banking one / one that uses Sweet Child o'mine cast down into the firepits of Hades there to languish in torment and pain until judgement day. Oh yes.

Any fucking advert that tries to be 'heartwarming' and show families running home, usually to some whiny emo shit song about coming home, all to get home for.... fucking cheese or sausages or some shit.

I was looking for a 17th century oil painting earlier, perhaps the Flemish school, of hell and judgement. You know, crowds of people in semi-darkness, fire and that. Looked like a rave from the 90s. House of God in Brum or The Coven in Oxford. Anyway, unlike that other song, there the devil is a DJ. Looked like a good -rave up!
