Echoes of the Forgotten

"Roll up, roll up, he repeats in the calm sing-song of an escaped lunatic. As the words travel to us, the skin prickles on my arms as though scratched by a painfully cold wind. A grin stretches across his face, one half more than the other, revealing large slabs of grey teeth."

It should have been a night they'd never forget. It became the night he lost everything. A night he couldn't remember.

On the first night of their third year of university, five students disappear without a trace. Three days later, Will Campbell is found miles away, in the middle of the countryside, covered in somebody else's blood. His friends are nowhere to be found. And Will can't remember anything except a fairground and a haunting man with a crooked smile.

But there was no fair that night.
