Black

The man who cannot die; the girl who won't stay dead. The end of summer has emptied the quiet seaside village of Arniston. Holiday homes are shuttered, hotel rooms empty, beaches deserted. Winter has brought the wind and rain, and something else: an evil that hunts in dreams; promising pleasure, delivering death. The dead girl is tearing her way into the world; inhuman, implacably amoral, driven only by her need to live, no matter the cost. Unable to resist the siren call of her burgeoning power, the man who brought death to the world is awake once more, and ready to measure himself against the twice-born girl. A nightmare is bearing down on Arniston, a hurricane of violence fuelled by love and rage and despair. In the eye of the storm, James Barker and Debbie Gaiman are about to learn that there are things worse - far worse - than a broken heart. Sex, dreams and death. Black.
