This begins and culminates in one of the most extraordinary places in the world, an ossuary in the Czech Republic that is completely decorated with human bones. I was privileged to visit it with the author himself, an awesome experience. This chilling thriller concerns sinister people who collect sinister art for sinister reasons. It’s violent, exciting stuff with a touch of the supernatural and a fair bit of horror. I rate him very highly.
Comparison: Stephen King, James Herbert, P J Tracy.
