E-book Category: Fiction, Horror, Novels E-book Title: Beastly Child Author: Nigel Woodhead Book Description: In the middle of winter a sinister new shop opens in the ancient shire town of Summerwell. Trade in occult goods is brisker than the owner could ever have dreamed. Staff on the town's new paper find that news is picking up too. An anorexic commits suicide. A pet rabbit is crucified to a tree. A respectable father tortures his son. A photographer has an epileptic fit while watching TV. Just a series of unconnected coincidences, events with natural explanations? Truth is, everyone in Summerwell has something in common. They are all fulfilling the needs of their masters. The trouble is, no one wants to tell the whole story. Or so it seems to the police. But others are watching too. And they see things through quite different eyes. Something has been awakened in their midst. A great crime from long ago. And a lonely child.
It is time to apply the old remedies. An eye for an eye...
