Head of Zeus
The Shadow People
The Shadow People by Graham Masterton

Jerry Pardoe and Jamila Patel hunt down a ritualistic cult inspired by Neolithic cannibals in the new chilling horror from Graham Masterton.

Det. Sgt. Jamila Patel and Det. Con. Jerry Pardoe have reluctantly acquired a reputation in the Metropolitan Police for their ability to tackle bizarre and apparently supernatural crimes. Now they have been called back together after three bodies are found in a London basement... bodies which have been taken apart, roasted and eaten.

The markings on the wall suggest this might have been done by some kind of religious cult – and as more people are kidnapped and cannibalised, Patel and Pardoe realise they are dealing with a group of devil-worshippers invoking an ancient god who has not been worshipped since the Neolithic age...

Praise for Graham Masterton:

'A true master of horror' James Herbert
'One of the most original and frightening storytellers of our time' Peter James
'A natural storyteller with a unique gift for turning the mundane into the terrifyingly real' New York Journal of Books
