To Dream of the Dead by Phil Rickman
With the flood water washing up Church Lane towards the vicarage and the shop running out of cigarettes it looks like a cold and complex Christmas for Merrily Watkins in an ancient community forced to untangle its own history against the swirling uncertainty of the future.
Nail-biting, yet thoughtful and complexWhat T.S. Eliot did for Canterbury Cathedral, Rickman does for Hereford' Jane Jakeman, Shotsmag. * Shotsmag.co.uk *
A first class thriller with a difference' Guardian. * Guardian *
Merrily is a most original sleuth and an interesting, sparky woman of emotional and spiritual depth. Rickman is an excellent writer, terrific on atmosphere… The best so far - The Times. * The Times *
