Author: Tim Lebbon
Scott receives a letter from his grandfather thirty-years after his death and it awakens in him an ability to see a world of ghosts and supernatural creatures. His grandfather had committed suicide after killing his best friend, Lewis, and the circumstances had always remained a mystery. Scott soon discovers that the two friends were after immortality - and his grandfather, 'Papa', had put an abrupt end to their quest after realizing what a mistake it was to pursue. Lewis, however, is still a force - and kidnaps Scott's wife, taking her to this other place/dimension.
On his quest to recover his wife, he encounters an ally in the form of an African woman who says she IS immortal, who protects him from the demonic creatures they face.
An equal parts fantasy novel as it is horror, Lebbon again delivers the goods - an entertaining, well-penned tale that does not disappoint.
