The sixth instalment in LJ Ross's globally bestselling DCI Ryan mystery series is set in the spectacular Victorian mansion, Cragside House, in Morpeth, Northumberland.

From the #1 international bestselling author of Holy Island.

Are you afraid of the dark..?

After his climactic battle with the notorious serial killer The Hacker, DCI Ryan is spending the summer with his fiancΓ©e within the grounds of Cragside, a spectacular Bavarian-style mansion surrounded by acres of woodland.

When they are invited to attend the staff summer partyβ€”a Victorian murder mystery eveningβ€”it's all a joke until the lights go out and an elderly man is found dead. It looks like an unfortunate accident but, as the dead man's life begins to unfold, Ryan and his team of detectives realise that all is not as it appears.

When a second body is found, terror grips the close-knit community, and Ryan must uncover the killer who walks among them before they strike again...

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunit set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.
