About this ebook

Joe " Spider" Bannion is a man haunted by his past. A man who seems caught in the twilight world between life and a world beyond. Spider is a man who is on intimate terms with death and he has trodden the dark path and rubbed shoulders with evil. His actions have condemned him to a lonely existence in the shadowy fringes of life. His only constant companions are his ex wife and his long suffering ex partner. They are the only ones he allows to become close to him. Then again he has little choice in that, as they are ghosts from his past. They are both dead as a direct result of his actions and they come and go in his world as they choose.
From a glittering career as a police detective in Dublin to a lowly free lance private detective, working the sordid world of divorce cases in London. His escape from his violent past and his own actions have brought him to the bottom of the slippery slope. Spider exists in a grey world of his own making. His every waking hour and dreaming moment are haunted by the horrors of the past. A past where everything he touched had turned to ashes. Where he betrayed all those who cared for him.
He had immersed himself in the evil of the dark streets and it had seeped into him. Everything he held dear had been laid waste by that evil and in the end he had fled from it. Now he will find that you cannot flee from what is inside you. He carries a darkness within him that will always draw him towards the source of evil.
Young women are turning up dead from very mysterious causes. A routine missing persons enquiry finds Spider once again brushing shoulders with evil. At a time when he had just begun to think that even a damaged person like him could find love again. Spider now finds himself once again staring into the deep dark truthful mirror. He must face the ghosts of his past and in doing so he just might find redemption in the future.
