Stone Certainty

By Simon R Green

Dare you enter the stone circle . . .? The world's most unlikely ghost-busting duo - actress Diana and handsome young bishop Alistair - are back in this spine-tingling paranormal mystery from New York Times bestselling British fantasy author

There are stories about the dilapidated stone circle at Chipping Amesbury, going back centuries. Of people going missing, never to be seen again. Of people found dead inside the circle. Of monsters, and of demons. The villagers may tell the tales with relish to visiting tourists, but a careful observer will notice that there is no transport to the stones, no tours on offer, and the locals stay well away.

Alistair Kincaid, the youngest ever bishop of All Souls Hollow, is an expert in Britain's ancient stone circles. That's why, when landowner Sir Neville Chumley announces his plans to restore the circle to its ancient glory, he agrees to take part in a documentary about the project.

Well - that, plus talented actress Diana Hunt is on board. Ever since their last encounter, when the pair of them hunted ghosts and solved a murder, the tabloids have dubbed them the Holy Terrors, and Alistair can't wait to see her again.

But soon after filming begins, Alistair and Diana are plunged into a terrifying mystery. For the repositioning of the final stone unleashes a series of blood-chilling events that threaten to make them both believe in demons - if, that is, they make it out of the stone circle alive.

The Holy Terrors novels are funny, scary and thoroughly entertaining - perfect for fans of Simon R. Green's urban fantasy novels, as well as those who enjoy American Horror Story, The Haunting of Hill House, horror novels, and murder mysteries with a supernatural twist.

The Holy Terrors are back!

An entertaining quick read where all the characters are flamboyant and colorful which leads to many wild things and possibly supernatural? At least that is what Alastair and Diana have been hired to find out! The "Holy Terrors" are back to see if a circle of stones, famous for many previous disappearances and whispers of demons from another dimension visiting, is actually all its cracked up to be. A light read, a bit of spookiness, but not quite so many dead bodies this time around. Since Alastair and Diana are old hands at this now, there is lots of fun banter between the two, and you know they will always survive, be it something supernatural, or just plain human nastiness. I like this couple and this series is quite fun to read. I will happily read more, if Diana and Alastair find more cases or shows together!
