Book two in the Barnikel and Fearnaught occult detectives series. Dark deeds in deepest Hampshire. Tried and sentenced to be burned at the stake as a witch, Ann Mason's dying curse, shrieked in agony, echoes down the centuries. Graves disturbed, the dead apparently walking again and human remains found amongst the ashes of a fire. Is Ann's vengeance being visited on the ancestors of those who caused her death? Reverend Bahati Barnikel, aided by the faithful Victor Fearnaught, confronts evil from beyond the grave, but is all as it appears? How can the Jogger in Black be the younger version of a woman in her nineties, recently deceased and interred in a quiet English churchyard?
