The past had been buried. But now someone has remembered . . .

Prolific lawyer Charlie Priest has bet his career on one case, but when his star witness turns up brutally murdered on the first morning of the trial, things start to fall apart.

Priest knows there's a vicious killer out there, but as the bodies begin to pile up, he soon realises that he's caught in a web of corruption that protects a deadly secret: one that threatens to tear him and those he cares about apart. And Priest has demons of his own to battle, suffering from dissociative disorder, a condition so destructive that it leaves him questioning the truth of his own existence.

Can Priest uncover the truth before it's too late?

'Had me gripped form the first page . . . Engaging, complicated and compelling' Adam Hamdy, author of Pendulum

'Macabre and magnificent, The Ash Doll cranks up the tension from page one and doesn't let go until its breathless conclusion' Mark Hill, author of His First Lie

Rezensionen
Another brilliant Charlie Priest novel from James Hazel. Such an engaging and compelling main character and group dynamic. Loved it. Creepy too and quite emotional . . . an absolutely compelling and intricately woven story that is highly addictive. Charlie and his particular issues are utterly engaging and unusual enough to stand out within the genre. The mystery elements are dark and unsettling with a huge dose of unpredictability that keeps you turning those pages until the final resolution . . . just the type of crime fiction that keeps me hooked on the books. Beautifully written, indelibly fascinating, bring on more Charlie Priest novels Liz Loves Books
