Publisher Description

Garway church was built by medieval Knights Templar. After seven centuries, the Welsh border village is still shadowed in their mysteries. Why do the local pubs have astrological names? What happened in Garway to intimidate the Edwardian ghost-story writer M. R James? And why is it impossible to find a builder prepared to restore the ancient Master House, a few fields away from Garway church?

Deliverance consultant Merrily Watkins is ordered to investigate by the Bishop Hereford. Initially unconvinced that anything is amiss, a violent death changes everything, and Merrily's inquiries soon uncover hidden layers of sin and retribution in this secretive landscape.

Warned off when she stumbles into forbidden areas, Merrily has no option but to conceal a major crime as she returns to Garway to find fibres of fear stitched into history and insidiously twisted in the corridors and the cloisters of power.

"As a Phil Rickman lover, I was not disappointed with this book. It is a wonderful mixtureof the spiritual and the mysterious. The closer I got to the end, the harder it was to put down and now I am really diappointed that it is finished. I guess I will just have to go and buy another one. "

    " It is rare that I don't finish a book, but this one I am not finishing. I just don't care what happens, though I am mildly curious as to what the hell is going on. But the cost of slogging through the disjointed style is too high, and I suspect the payout will not be worth it anyway. "

    " Excellent writing as always from this author. Merrily is sent to look into something disturbing in a property which is linked to Someone Important. A complex mystery is revealed. "

    " Interesting to see the range of views on this book. I am a real fan of the Merrily Watkins books and loved this one very much. I just wish I could find a church with a priest like her. "

    " Not bad but it was just a bit dull. About half way through I realised I didn't care about any of the characters so I gave up. Life's too short for dull books "

    " Book was all over the place , couldn't follow the story , not entirely sure if the Historical information was made up or exact (I live in Hereford!) soon put the book down halfway through and gave up the ghost! Very boring "
