About this product
Product Information
When Autumn storms blast Hereford, centuries-old human bones are found amongst the roots of a tree blown down on the city's Castle Green. But why have they been stolen? At the nearby Cathedral, another storm is building around a new, modernising bishop who believes that if the Church is to survive it must phase out irrelevant archaic practices. Not good news for Merrily Watkins, consultant on the paranormal or, as it used to be known, diocesan exorcist. Especially as she's now presented with the job at its most medieval. In the moody countryside on the edge of Wales, a rambling 12th-century house is thought to be haunted. Although its new owners don't believe in ghosts, they do believe in spiritual darkness and the need for exorcism. But their approach to Merrily is oblique and guarded. No-one can be told - least of all the new bishop. Merrily's discovery of the house's links with the medieval legend of a man who resisted mortality threatens to expose the hidden history of a more modern cult and its trail of insidious abuse. A trail that may not be closed.Product Identifiers

Terrific and unusual series
I'm reading all the Merrily Watkins books in order and, half way through this one, I'm finding it just as gripping and complex as the others. Phil comes up with some off beat metaphors and similes which are sometimes startling but are always spot on. His characters are distinctive and often memorable and his use of real places and events, not always disguised, give an extra layer of apparent realism despite the creepy subject matter. I took a trip recently, to Hereford and Ludlow, to explore some of his settings and will go again (not after dark) Thanks Phil, for these excellent books and for your visits to our (now closed) bookshop in Moreton-in-Marsh.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
