Book descriptionThe burning church lit up Manchester’s skyline. Outrage at the crime turns to horror when a charred corpse and satanic symbols are found in the smoking ruins.
Leading the investigation, DI Jon Spicer stumbles into a perverse underworld he had no idea existed. Further killings bring the realisation that those responsible are prepared to commit unspeakable acts of evil in homage to their God.
With fires of hatred threatening to engulf the city, the atrocities must be halted. But even in Spicer’s worst nightmares, he could never imagine how close to home the investigation will take him.
