As a member of the Counter Terrorist Unit, Sean Doyle thought he'd
seen it all. Every violent act, every depraved action man could
perpetrate against man but he is to discover that there are much
worse things in this world than even he has encountered. Tracking a
group of renegade terrorists from London to the Republic of
Ireland, Doyle and his partner must discover who is funding these
men and why. What he discovers is beyond even his experience and
threatens not just his life but his sanity too. The trail of terror
leads not just across Britain but to France as well where the
monstrous deeds of a murderer who died four hundred years earlier
still cast a dark and horrific shadow. In the grisly frames of a
stained glass window taken from the home of this vile killer lay
the secret sought by so many for so long. The secret of
immortality. And one man will stop at nothing to get it. Sean Doyle
is about to meet that man. Modern terrorism meets Medieval madness
in a jaw-dropping climax that will make the living envy the
dead..."Britain's greatest living horror author." -Dark Side "An

the Police are powerless to stop it. Frank Harrison had ruled
gangland unopposed for more than two years and yet someone is out
to wipe him and his men from the face of the earth. Who and why?
The answer, when it comes, will test not just Harrison's courage
but his sanity too. For him, there is only one way to fight back
against an enemy he can barely believe he faces. So, into this

During an archaeological dig, a hidden chamber filled with the
skulls of children is discovered. At first glance they seem to have
been there for thousands of years but closer examination reveals a
more shocking secret. The opening of the chamber triggers a series
of horrific murders, each victim mutilated and their entrails used
to form a different letter of the alphabet. Who is behind this
outrage? And how is it linked to a subterranean chamber thousands
of years old? Inspector Stephen Wallace must unmask this crazed
killer. Is it the sadistic thug responsible for organising a series
of barbaric dog fights? The mysterious recluse who holds Black Mass
orgies for drug addicted teenagers? Or is it, in fact, something
much worse? An evil so old, so vile and so powerful that it
threatens to engulf everyone who comes near it. For Wallace, and
possibly for the whole human race, time is running out fast.

that job involves the burning of aborted foetuses and the memories
of what happened to his brother begin to torment Harold. In the
small town where he lives the terror is mounting because of the
escape from prison of psychopath Paul Harvey. Within days of his
escape a horrifying series of murders begins but there is much
worse to come. Pierce and Harvey, both disturbed and guarding
terrible secrets, are about to unleash a terror beyond

"Everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes," said Andy Warhol.
And fame is something certain people will go to any lengths to
achieve: whether to be revered or reviled, the lure of notoriety is
strong for those lacking it. When five-year-old Becky goes missing
in a crowded shopping centre, her mother's worst nightmare has come
true. But Hailey Gibson's nightmares are just beginning. After
Becky is safely returned by Adam Walker, Hailey finds her initial
gratitude turning to something else. With her marriage close to
ruins, she is tempted to begin an affair with this likeable
newcomer. Besides, Hailey wants revenge against her husband and his
mistress. And Walker seems willing - only too happy to please. But
maybe he has his own agenda? As she wisely ends their budding
relationship, Hailey begins to wonder if Walker could be behind the
acts of vandalism committed against her home and family. Or is
someone else seeking revenge, who she has not yet encountered? When
petty harassment turns to open violence, Hailey finds herself
caught in a spiralling vortex of suffering and death . . . until
the shattering truth forces her to make the the most horrendous
decision of her life.
