Sinopsis

Everyone in Wilbeth Green has something to hide, but she's about to uncover their secrets. 
 
1956: In a quiet English village, the smoldering ruins of Rosemont Abbey have set the residents' tongues wagging, and everyone is quick to accuse troublemaker Paul Everly of the crime of arson. Paul has vanished without a trace, leaving only his plucky twin sister, Louisa, certain of his innocence. Fueling her conviction is an inexplicable connection--she felt her twin's death an hour before the abbey went up in flames. 
 
Armed with nothing but her wit and her keen sense of intuition, Louisa embarks on her own investigation, challenging the dubious townspeople and the disdain of her aunt and uncle. Even Inspector Malcolm Sinclair, once Paul's closest friend, warns Louisa to abandon her pursuit. But Louisa is determined to solve a murder no one else believes was committed, even if it means unraveling secrets that could shake Wilbeth Green to its core. 
 
"A thrilling and beautifully written tale from start to finish, filled with a strong sense of time, deft characterization, and more than enough twists to keep one guessing. Readers will be as hard-pressed as I was to put this one down once they begin."--ANNA LEE HUBER, USA Today bestselling author 
 
"What an absolute delight of a novel! Naomi Stephens has a new fan in me!"--SARAH SUNDIN, Christy Award-winning author 
 
"An English murder mystery set in the 1950s, plus a friends (and sometimes enemies)-to-more romance? Naomi Stephens is an author to watch!"--JULIE KLASSEN, bestselling author

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    When folklorist Arthur Ashworth inherits a decaying London townhouse, he uncovers more than just ancestral secrets. Ashworth House stands upon a Nexus Point where the Tenebrous Veil between worlds is dangerously thin, and a primeval cosmic entity, the Bone Collector, strains to break through. 
    As shadowy hounds and grief-devouring spirits plague the gaslit streets, Arthur learns of the Umbral Covenant, a powerful occult society led by the enigmatic Lord Thorne. They are orchestrating a grand ritual during the Noctis Major alignment, seeking to tear open the Veil and unleash unimaginable horror upon an unsuspecting city. Aided by the tenacious journalist Eleanor Vance, Arthur must delve into forbidden Lamplighter lore and confront his own family’s terrifying legacy of madness. 
    With the apocalyptic ritual looming, Arthur’s desperate gambit to activate an ancient protective ward may be London’s only hope – or the key to his own damnation beneath the Veil of the Bone Collector. Can he seal the breach before all is lost to ancient, unknowable evil?

    Over a year has passed since The Spatchcock Killer's reign of terror reached its blood-drenched conclusion, but DI Gutteridge is still haunted by memories of the case. With flashbacks of discovering his wife's mutilated remains twelve years earlier also plaguing his sleep, Gutteridge is beginning to find his corrupted life overwhelming.
    But then a new crime scene materialises, one that threatens to contaminate his world even further. A crime scene that in every conceivable way seems to be a verbatim copy of one from a long way in his past. There is also a note pinned to the body, a note addressed to him.
    Could one of Gutteridge's oldest and most terrifying nemesis be back in his world to reap revenge, or is there a copy-cat intent on riding the wave of The Shropshire Ripper's infamy? Increasingly aware that the pressures of his life are beginning to change him, will Gutteridge discover the truth and bring the killer to justice?

    Day 1. A young woman’s body is found in a shallow grave in the woods, buried in a white shroud. She’s been dead for a week. Her teeth are smashed in, her lips stitched together. Her hands are missing. 
     
    She’s the fourth young woman found like this. 
     
    With no witnesses, no clues and no leads to follow, the investigation is going nowhere. 
     
    That’s when Detective Alice Rossi is called in. 
     
    Alice knows this case is a poisoned chalice. Not least because she has a new team to contend with — who don’t like being bossed around by a woman. 
     
    Day 2. Sixteen-year-old Maggie Hewson is reported missing. She never came home from school, and her father is beside himself. 
     
    Will she be the fifth girl to die?

The midwife Mrs Hughes was found dead in her flat. Around the corpse, five pumpkins had been placed, each carved with a grotesque face and brightly illuminated. Several inconsistencies immediately caught Holmes's eye, and thus the case presented a puzzle even for the master detective and his assistant...
