Death's Spirit

He went into the woods to hunt ghosts. He was never meant to become one.

Popular ghost hunter Jason Wong is livestreaming to dozens when he arrives at Cash's Well — an abandoned ruin deep in the Essex woodland — chasing a creature only a handful of people claim to have seen. His followers watch it happen. Not one can save him.

For DS Tomek Bowen, hollowed out by his mother's recent death, it should be a straightforward murder. It's anything but. Every lead drags him deeper into a paranoid world of conspiracy theorists, and the closer he gets, the more dangerous the crowd around him becomes.

This time, the dead aren't the only thing Tomek should be afraid of.
