What starts out as a harmless story of an elderly couple eking out an existence as Welsh hill farmers, becomes menacing when Carwyn discovers a prehistoric ruin in one of the fields on their land. He becomes consumed by the need to excavate. His wife Rhian, starts to realise that her husband is not well - he’s becoming a frightening, obsessed stranger.
The ancient stones that he digs up, take on a life of their own, influencing Carwyn, making him sick. This is a really spooky, unnerving book - there are some seriously scary parts later in the book, and probably best not read before bed (although the dreams are interesting!).
I loved this, and I can’t wait to see what Ian Higginson has in store for us next!

This is a gripping read which has a great plot that had me guessing for the majority of the time, a fast pace and excellent characters which is what you want from a thriller. There is unpredictability and suspense with an ending that was very satisfying.
I admit, there were moments that pushed the boundaries of reality, Amelie 'disappearing' during an ongoing serial killer case for example, but I am able to push those to one side because, overall, the story had me engaged from the very beginning.
I am hoping there is more to come from DS Amelie Davis; she is an interestingly flawed character and there is definitely more mileage there for further stories especially if her colleagues are brought into it a little more than they were in this one.
Thank you to Orion Publishing Group and NetGalley for the advance copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.
