About this series
A SEVERED HEAD
A grisly series of murders across London is baffling local authorities. Eyewitnesses describe suspects who are only partially visible – one appears to have no feet, another no head, a fourth is missing his entire right side.
A SUPERNATURAL CASE
These murders are neither straightforward nor easily explained, which means there are only two people fit to investigate: DS Jamila Patel and DC Jerry Pardoe, who are used to tracking spirits intent on causing mayhem.
A BLOODY HISTORY
When two children go missing – finding themselves lost in another time period altogether – the investigation leads to the discovery of a violent entity. One who has been killing for much longer than anyone first realised – and has no plans to stop...
The new PATEL and PARDOE mystery.
For fans of Joe Hill, Peter James and Stephen King, Graham Masterton is a master of the horror genre whose books have sold millions of copies across the globe.
Praise for Graham Masterton:
'One of the most original and frightening storytellers of our time' Peter James
'Suspenseful and tension-filled... all the finesse of a master storyteller' Guardian

Arcane markings on the factory wall lead them to a terrifying cult in thrall to a Neolithic god. A god who demands the ultimate sacrifice from his followers.

Or will they themselves become a human sacrifice?
