Summary

There was a sailor's graveyard in Moon Beach. This was where the funeral business first started. Rumour had it that the witch's fingers used to reach out and sink ships. But there hadn't been a wreck for years, and all the funeral parlours had moved downtown. This is a obsessive novel by the author of "The Insult".

The Five Gates of Hell Reviews

'A chilling, fabulous mirror on reality ... An involving and inventive book full of beautiful writing. It has the momentum of a thriller harnessed to the substance of a modern classic' Scotland on Sunday 'A sophisticated storyteller and portrayer of character, who writes in rhythmic prose enriched with original imagery' Sunday Times 'Astonishing ... The novel is filled with colourful eccentrics and unworldly happenings, quirky characters and supernatural undercurrents ... Exceptionally well-written' Times Literary Supplement 'Seethes with originality ... An ingenious, sardonic and seductive roman noir' New York Times Book Review
