More about the book

<p> <i><b>There are things I need to know...</b></i> </p><p> On a farm in southern Ireland, the dismembered bones of eleven women are found in a common grave, buried eight decades ago. Detective Superintendent Katie Maguire is used to bloodshed, but this ivory litter of human remains is unimaginable butchery. </p><p> <i><b>Of other worlds apart from this...</b></i> </p><p> In isolated darkness not far away, an American tourist is at the mercy of a serial killer. His tools are a boning knife, twine, and a doll fashioned from nails and fishhooks. The murder of his victims is second only to the pleasure of their pain. </p><p> <i><b>Darker places inhabited by evil monstrosities...</b></i> </p><p> As an eighty-year-old mystery unfolds, so does a modern-day ritual that's marked Katie Maguire as its next victim. For what happened once in this small picturesque village is happening again. It's more than a series of horrifying crimes. It's tradition. </p><p> <i><b>Take me there.</b></i></p>
