'The Dolocher'

Someone is killing. Or something!! 'The Dolocher' by European P. Douglas draws the reader in and keeps the pages turning effortlessly. The author excellently portrays the atmosphere which makes horror-history work so well. Dublin is the perfect setting, and as the story moves forward, we become aware of some dark history. A perfect balance is struck between the 18th century Dublin as we know it and the supernatural aspects of this story. The words here are so descriptive but without being too wordy or long winded. It puts you in the centre of it all, in the forefront of everything that is going on around these characters. I look forward to more of the same from the author.
