Book Description

Demons and killers, past and present, haunt an ancient landscape... superstition or terrifying reality? It is 1974, a time between times, and the autumn equinox, when the spirits are said to wander between worlds. Detective Briony Williams, starting a new job with the Thames Valley police in Oxford, is called to investigate the murder of a seventeen-year-old girl. In the victim’s hand she finds a stone carved with an ancient cryptic message, and is quickly convinced that this is no ordinary domestic crime. She follows leads that take her out into the prehistoric landscape of the White Horse Vale in search of a killer inspired by folklore traditions about a demonic supernatural visitor. To solve the case, Briony needs the help of a psychic girl and a druid leader, but she knows that only strictly scientific evidence will stand up in court. While the danger builds, Briony must steer a course between rationality and superstition, and find the courage to confront the demons from her own past. ‘A gripping mystery with a strong sense of evil’ The Australian Women's Weekly
