SYNOPSIS
There are things I need to know...

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.

Of other worlds apart from this...

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.

Darker places inhabited by evil monstrosities...

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.

Take me there.

RELEASE NOTES:

Enjoy the book, hun!

Picked this book up through BookMooch. Great to see you around Dream!! Thanks so much~~~

Absolutely loved this book. The main character was well developed and multi-faceted. The story line was excellent and the sick shit was truly sick!

Katie is a detective in an Irish police force. She is in fact the first woman detective and therefore in the spotlight and working hard to prove her worth. She is married to a man who has lost his way and dabbles in the not so legal side of things. On top of this she is dealing with the grief of having lost her only child. Her character is well developed and she is very likeable.

When she gets a call to investigate the discovery of 11 sets of human remains buried on a farm she begins on a journey that has many twists and turns along the way. It is discovered that the bones are over 80 years old, and therefore not of immediate consequence, but when a young girls remains are found in the same condition as the unearthed skeletons, Katie tackles the case with determination. This storyline is fantastic! I totally enjoyed this book and the ending was as good as the journey!!

Finally got to the PO to send this book to England! Hopefully it will make it there before Xmas! LOL Please enjoy!

Thank you, thank you THANK YOU!!! Yes, the book has arrived! I can't wait to finish my current book as this will definitely be the next one up...

Yet again Masterton comes up trumps - brilliant! This is an absorbing storyline involving a particulary gruesome ritual which made me wince on more than one occasion! There are excellent, believable characters throughout & I always like the fact that "real" mythology is involved (I've looked Mor-Rioghain up on the 'net!)

Thank you so much luckaye you've made me a very happy plum :o)
