SYNOPSIS

In the seaside town of Flushbury on the Isle of Wight in gaslamp 19th century England, a murderous monster prowls and hunts its prey. The hunter becomes the hunted when Fr. Neville Whitesmith of the Ministry of Devilry and Strange Occurrences arrives from London to find and destroy the deadly creature in part two of this spooky dark fantasy series.

When an undead, blood-sucking creature wreaks havoc and death in a picturesque seaside village, the inhabitants plead for a priest who specializes in the occult and the macabre to help rid the town of the monster. There’s something about this case that’s different and troubling for the priest, Fr. Neville Whitesmith. Previously he has only dealt with demonic spirits. This time he will have to kill an undead creature to settle the matter. Is Whitesmith up to the task? Or will he become only another victim?
