Description
For well over a century the town of Raine's Landing, Massachusetts, has been cut off from the outside world. It's hidden by a witch's curse... nobody knows that it's there, and nobody who was born there can ever leave.
And if that wasn't strange enough, most people who live there practice varying degrees of magic. There are a small group of High Adepts, powerful conjurors indeed. There are the people of the Tyburn district, who live their lives in worship of the Moon Goddess. But almost everybody has a mystic amulet or knows some spells. And that being the case, the town ought to be pretty safe.
But that, unfortunately, is not the case. Raine's Landing is under almost constant supernatural attack, from demons, dark magicians, ancient gods, and even from some people who were born inside the place. It has become a focus for the battle between Light and Dark, and no one can be certain how that Magic War will end.
Now evil has breached the town's boundaries once again... A serial killer with a corrupt and twisted soul, Cornelius Hanlon has freely entered Raine's Landing, undeterred by the ancient magical safeguards. And when he chooses the town's oldest adept as his first victim, the maniac inadvertently gains possession of a powerful "gift" more terrible than anything he could have sadistically dreamed. Ex-town cop Ross Devries and his Harley-riding sometime-partner, Cassandra Mallory, have no supernatural abilities. But they are the last line of defense in this village of secrets and shadows - facing a psychopath who now wields the power to bend the living and the dead to his will. PRAISE FOR THE RAINE'S LANDING NOVELS: "Will keep you on the edge of your seat. A definite must read for those into urban fantasy, paranormal fiction, or just a good book" - SF Revu. "When it comes to fiction for me, characters are first and foremost the most important factor in drawing me into the story, and Mr. Richards' characters are absolutely wonderful. The action is fast and furious, with plenty of witchcraft, magic, and supernatural beings. His writing is atmospheric and spooky, once you start you will find it hard to put down" - The Monster Librarian. "Tremendously entertaining. I thoroughly recommend this to all fans of the paranormal genre" - author Gaston Sanders. "By weaving this fantasy into a modern setting, Richards creates something unique" - Alternative Reads. "The action doesn't let up for a page as Richards pulls one menace out of the bag after another. Raine's Landing is a playground for (his) vibrant imagination, while the rest of us stand on the sidelines with eyes wide open at his audacity and wonder what he'll do next" - Black Static magazine. "Just hums along, taking you at high speed to places of which you have never dreamed. Be sure to pick up this superb fantasy" -- The Deepening Review Site.
