Publisher's Synopsis
Jerry Pardoe and Jamila Patel investigate an eerie string of murders featuring missing feet and disembodied heads in the chilling horror from Graham Masterton. A SEVERED HEAD After a South London man is shot and killed at home, his wife swears that the offender had no feet. Even stranger, when a teacher is murdered at a local school, her pupils insist they saw disembodied feet dangling from their classroom ceiling. All across the country, victims claim the assailant was missing a body part, while others stumble upon the severed appendages. A SUPERNATURAL CASE It's clear these murders are neither straightforward nor easily explained, which means there are only two people fit to investigate: DS Jamila Patel and DC Jerry Pardoe, who are used to tracking spirits intent on causing mayhem. A BLOODY HISTORY And when two children go missing - finding themselves lost in another time period altogether - the investigation will lead to the discovery of a violent entity. One who has been killing for much longer than anyone first realised... And has no plans to stop. Praise for the author: 'God, he's good.' STEPHEN KING 'One of the most original and frightening storytellers of our time' PETER JAMES 'Suspenseful and tension-filled... all the finesse of a master storyteller' GUARDIAN 'One of Britain's finest horror writers' DAILY MAIL 'You are in for a hell of a ride' GRIMDARK MAGAZINE
