A crumbling hotel on the border of England and Wales has long been linked with the possible origins of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles and his obsession with contacting the dead.

Fascinating for young Jane Watkins, flushed with the freedom of her first weekend job. But the sinister side soon becomes apparent to her mother, Merrily, Diocesan Exorcist for Hereford. Then come memories of a child who killed. And blood in the fresh snow.

Critic reviews

"Few writers blend the ancient and supernatural with the modern and criminal better than Rickman." (The Guardian)

"Phil Rickman is one of my all-time favourites. I love everything he's done." (Diana Gabaldon, international best-selling author)

"Merrily has become an ever more engaging protagonist, a passionate, flawed modern women every bit as concerned with the intricacies of crime as she is with demons that go bump in the night." (Geoffrey Wansell, Daily Mail)
