Description
They say the dead can't hurt you - they're wrong.
On the outskirts of a small rustic township in South Australia, the misery of the past continues to infect and stalk the land like black oil...
For here nothing truly dies...
Despite desperate efforts to erase what haunted past residents – the very thing they fled from in sickening terror – it claws relentlessly into the psyche of those present with devastating effects...
And in the dead of night, an impossible phone call compels Joshua Triplow to return to that place of ancient misery and tragedy… to the very same township of Kapunda whose constable, Benjamine McLevy, is plagued by visions of the tortured; visions she can't arrest, of things that have no right to be among the living.

I was hooked from the first page and was so glad I got to read this. The storyline was everything that I was looking for and enjoyed the feel of this, they felt realistic and had that concept that I wanted. I was hooked from the plot and so glad I got to read this. David A. Neuman wrote this perfectly and am excited for more.

This is an extremely atmospheric book. It is really creepy and I had to stop reading once it got dark outside on more than one occasion. Thanks to Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book
