Through a Glass, Darkly
£3.90
Steeped in classic horror, this chilling contemporary tale deals with secrets long buried, festering guilt, and haunting loneliness. Jack Trent, the most effective criminal investigation officer in the history of the department, is having bad dreams of a child’s murder in a forest at the hands of something indescribable.
But these are more than nightmares—they are visions of the future that Jack has tried for years to suppress. Something happened to Jack in his childhood— something that means he cannot touch another living person and something that killed his mother—and this something has returned to inspire his visions.
In a final race against time, Jack attempts to save a boy’s life in the clearing of Redgrave Forest. Can he face the long-dead Dr. Mendicant and the ancient Darkness of Crowman? Can he face the evil living inside himself? And what will he make of the Doctor’s final, devastating revelation?
