Sinossi

Lost in the Welsh countryside, antiquarian Alfred Bannerlee seeks shelter in a sprawling, decaying mansion just as a wedding is about to take place. But the eerie estate harbors chilling secrets, including the legend of Parson Lolly, a spectral figure said to haunt its halls. As night falls, the household is thrown into chaos when a series of inexplicable events—and murder—turn legend into terrifying reality.
 
Told through Bannerlee’s diary entries, Death in the Dusk is a gripping blend of gothic horror and detective fiction, where the line between the supernatural and reality blurs with every shadowy corridor.

    30th Anniversary Edition with a new introduction by the author 
    Neal Carey has to keep the mob, the FBI, and a major television personality from killing his newest client, but he’s tempted to do the job himself. 
    Sometime student and ever-reluctant detective Neal Carey would rather be finishing a dull doctoral thesis than staring down the nose of a loaded gun, but his new assignment doesn’t sound dangerous. All he has to do is pull off the ultimate makeover: turn Polly Paget, a gum-chewing, foul-mouthed, big-haired broad, into a perfect lady in time to testify in a rape case against Jack Landis, head of the Family Cable Network and America’s most beloved family man. But Polly isn’t cooperating, and everyone (including a former FBI agent, an obsessive-compulsive hit man, the Mafia, a porn prince, and a slew of tabloid reporters) is on her trail, turning Neal’s “simple” assignment into a deadly game of duck-duck-goose. 
    In a hellish and hilarious escapade that takes him from the deserts of Nevada to the bright lights of Las Vegas and finally to a hair-raising climax in a shoddily built amusement park, Neal tries to escape the mob’s big guns while taking a slippery walk up the world’s biggest water slide.
