'Daffodils freeze and shrubs cry in Stormhaven. They call it 'The Beast from the East' and the temperature's unholy; it crucifies all with cruel nails of ice; a Siberian chill piercing their bones. And there will be a further killing tonight - human, not plant; boy, not man.' So begins another case for Abbot Peter and D.I. Tamsin Shah, with the discovery of a young man's body at the seaside beauty spot of Splash Point. He drowns beneath a cold, uncaring moon; and as P.C.

'Daffodils freeze and shrubs cry in Stormhaven. They call it 'The Beast from the East' and the temperature's unholy; it crucifies all with cruel nails of ice; a Siberian chill piercing their bones. And there will be a further killing tonight - human, not plant; boy, not man.' So begins another case for Abbot Peter and D.I. Tamsin Shah, with the discovery of a young man's body at the seaside beauty spot of Splash Point. He drowns beneath a cold, uncaring moon; and as P.C. Banville observes, it proves a 'hungry death', not be sated by one unfortunate corpse. There must, and will, be more. The investigation will lead the Abbot and Shah into deep but different danger. And it's not just the killer they need worry about. Pray for the coming of spring.
Autorenporträt
The Secret Testament of Julian The Secret Testament of Julian Simon Parke Other territories... Also available as an eBook Julian of Norwich was the first woman in the world to write a book in English, and yet had largely disappeared from view until her rediscovery during the twentieth century. A fourteenth century anchoress in Norwich, she lived in a cell for forty years, surrounded by savage plague, political inequality and religious bigotry. Yet Julian gave the world one of its most famous calls to hope: 'All shall be well, and all shall be well and all manner of things shall be well.' Who was she? Why did she pray for a near-death experience and then choose containment in a cell? And how did she come to speak with such optimism? In The Secret Testament of Julian, she tells her own story, full of difficulty and joy. No plaster saint, but a flesh and blood woman who from the silence of her cell speaks with a strength that few today can equal. Let Julian tell her story. About the author Simon Parke has been a scriptwriter for Spitting Image, a Sony award-winning radio writer and a priest in the Church of England.
