Publisher's Synopsis
HE COULD FEEL IT IN THE BLACKNESS, A DIFFERENCE IN ATMOSPHERE, A SENSE OF EVIL, OF THINGS HIDDEN... Amy Snowden, in middle age, has long since settled into a lonely life in the Yorkshire town of Gunnarshaw, until - to her neighbours' surprise - she suddenly marries a much younger man. Months later, Amy is found dead, apparently by her own hand, and her husband Wright has disappeared. Sergeant Caleb Cluff - silent, watchful, a man at home in the bleak moorland landscape of Gunnarshaw - must find out the truth about the couple's unlikely marriage, and solve the riddle of Amy's death.
