”A most original sleuth” THE TIMES
Welcome to the River Wye: a place of poetry, historic obsession… and occult murder.
Nestled deep in the Black Mountains, the village of Longtown is haunted by the double suicide of a lottery winner and his wife.
A rich Londoner, unaware of the town”s dark history, buys the dead man”s cottage in the hopes of refurbishing it…then begins to fall victim to a host of bad luck.
Luckily DS David Vaynor and Merrily Watkins – parish priest, single mum and renowned demon exorcist – are on the case.
More praise for Phil Rickman
