A standalone supernatural thriller from the author of the chilling Merrily Watkins Mysteries.

For four hundred years, the curfew bell has tolled nightly from the church tower of the small country town, Crybbe's only defence against the evil rising unbidden in its haunted streets.

Radio reporter Fay Morrison came to Crybbe because she had no choice. Millionaire music tycoon Max Goff came because there was nothing left to conquer, except the power of the spirit.

But he knew nothing of the town's legacy of dark magic - and nobody felt like telling him...

Review:

Gripping throughout. Powerful, classic stuff., The Times

Phil Rickman is one of my all-time favorites. I love everything he's done, from horror to mystery to supernatural thriller - often all in the same book. -- Diana Gabaldon
