Description
A young girl's body, mutilated and arranged in a macabre ritual, has been discovered in a sealed room. The remains are decades old, yet the crime still haunts Detective Inspector Tony McLean. A series of recent killings has left Edinburgh's police baffled, with no apparent connection or motive. McLean is convinced that these deaths are linked to the long-forgotten ceremonial killing, and he is determined to uncover the truth. As he delves deeper into the case, McLean becomes increasingly entangled in a web of terror and ancient evil. The lines between reason and superstition blur, and the detective must confront his own demons in order to solve the crimes. With each new discovery, the darkness closes in, threatening to consume him whole. The past and present collide in this gripping thriller, as McLean navigates a complex landscape of death, ritual, and madness.
