Synopsis

An ancient evil is rising in London...

Kate Maskell has the perfect life in London: The perfect job, the perfect apartment, and the perfect roommate. All that she's missing from her life is the big publishing deal that she's been chasing. Her roommate and longterm friend, Rafferty, is in the same boat working a job that suits him until his big break comes through.

All seems well until vials of blood and strange books begin to appear in the apartment. Suspecting that Rafferty is involved in something sinister, Kate and her friends go digging into London's metaphysical past to discover that a century old ritual is being prepared with her as their target.

Fear of the Dark is a fast-paced, heart-stopping race against time filled with ancient gods, secretive cults, and a city that refuses to die quietly.
