Beschreibung

There was a presence out there among the trees, and it watched . . .

Deep in the forests of northern Maine, two woodsmen discover a crashed aeroplane. There are no passengers, no pilots and no record of its disappearance. But among the wreckage, they find a list: of powerful men, the deals they have made, and the evil they have committed.

Years later, private investigator Charlier Parker learns of the list's existence and begins searching for it, inadvertently triggering the interest of monsters from his own past, bent on using the list for their own ends.

But as these forces violently converge, it becomes clear that someone - something - has survived the crash.

And it is waiting.

'Ingenious, seriously scary and plausible'

'Haunting, scary and addictive . . . the finest crime series currently in existence'
