    There is a convent full of secrets in the East End of London. Novice nun Mary is tormented by her past and a mystery that is seeing her sisters disappear one by one. The praying never stops and it's driving nails into her head. It may be she can save the convent, yet all she has ever done is kill. Can she trust anyone, including herself, to do the right thing - whatever the right thing is.

    Roderick Gladwish

    Professional engineer, part-time writer, part-time illustrator, full time dreamer. Due to poor self-control I write fiction. My short stories have been published in all sorts of places. I'm working to bring them all to Smashwords. Eventually novels will appear here as well. I'm biased toward Fantasy and Science Fiction, mainly I am a little random.
