As the days count down to Halloween, the race is on to stop an unspeakable evil from plunging Salem into eternal darkness. 
A National Indie Excellence Awards Finalist for Horror 
From the award-winning author of THE ART OF DYING 
Although THE BURYING POINT picks up where THE ART OF DYING leaves off, it follows Detective Ray Hanley on a completely new case that can be read as a standalone novel. 
“An unpredictable blend of crime and horror… The Burying Point grabs from the first pages with crisp, focused prose and dialogue-driven scenecraft.” –BookLife Reviews (Editor’s Pick) 
“A brilliant and unmissable dance with the devil. Salem witch lore has rarely been as terrifying as it is in The Burying Point.” –Bestthrillers.com 
“[Cavignano’s] fictionalized version of Salem makes for a wonderfully spooky backdrop… An effectively atmospheric crime novel that pits no-nonsense cops against wicked Massachusetts magic.” –Kirkus Reviews
