Praise

“Great fun and a spectacular read.  The story of the Carrion King story is so good thatyou’ll want it to be real…readers may forever fall in love with the English countryside.” — New York Journal of Books

“Though less explicit than in Mann’s Newbury and Hobbes occult mysteries (The Executioner’s Heart, 2013), there are some unexplainable events here that may have supernatural roots. Readers will be as interested in discovering what’s next for Elspeth and Peter as they are to unravel the mysteries of the forest.” — Booklist

“An ancient pagan legend concerning a murderous mage casts its dark shadow over contemporary events in this sinuous occult thriller….Mann’s characters are well drawn, and the culprit’s genuine occult powers add a frisson of the uncanny” — Publishers Weekly

“A dark and menacing crime drama with just a hint of paranormal activity to keep the reader on their toes…Mann does a wonderful job of constructing his sleepy little English village.” – Seattle Book Review & Manhattan Book Review

“A fun read, with something for fans of the cozy mystery, the thriller, and the supernatural investigation genres.” — Anthony Cardno blog review
