”Dark

OLD
SINS. NEW BLOOD.
Deputy
Sheriff William Shannahan doesn’t feel like a detective, at least
not like the ones he admires on TV. Not that he needs to be; the
small town of Graybel, Mississippi, is a peaceful place, with acres
of farmland, neighbors who always take care of their own, and noise
from the outside world muted by a hundred miles of forest.
That
silence is about to be broken.
When
a child is found dead in the woods, the medical examiner deems it a
dog attack. But the paw prints belong to something far larger than
any creature in the Mississippi forests, and what animal would remove
the victim’s eyes? Though no one believes him, William can’t
shake the feeling that a human killer lurks in the shadowed
woods.
And
his girlfriend, Cassie, has a son the same age as the victim.
Cassie
Parker was raised amid horrors she’s long pushed from her mind, but
her scars won’t let her forget. Nor do the hallucinations, dreams
so vivid she can feel and smell and taste them. And no one is more
terrified than Cassie when another victim is found mauled to
death—because this body has been drained of blood. She knows
exactly what type of person would sacrifice a child, and why they’re
after hers. But how can she explain it to William?
This
is William’s chance to act like a detective, to protect the woman
and child he’s desperate to save. Pushing back against prejudice
and presumption, he uncovers a trail of cruelty that spans decades,
but each clue brings him closer to a truth more horrifying than
killer beasts in the forest. For concealed beneath small-town
politics is knowledge that will shatter everything he knows to be
true about his town—and the people in it.
A
compulsively readable thriller in the vein of Cujo, The
Girl on the Train,
and M. Night Shyamalan’s The
Village, Shadow’s
Keep is
a mind-bending exploration of obsession, desperation, and how far
we’ll go to protect those we love.
