'Another great thriller from Stephen Leather but this time with a devilish twist!'
'Suffused with mysterious pentagrams, not to mention a creeping sense of evil, I suspect that down-to-earth Nightingale is a man we'll hear more of'
'A disturbing, blood-chilling read from a writer at the top of his game' ****
