• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Everyone in Ashford stays out of Red Cap Woods and avoids the megaliths called the Goblins' Playground. If dark elves don't wash their caps in your blood, you might run into the Lord of the Woods, never a good thing. When ne'er-do-well Allan Cutter staggers into the snug bar of the Three Crowns and dies, no one is surprised. After all, he took up residence in that abandoned caravan deep in the heart of darkness, didn't he? And everyone nods knowingly when Oscar Lent is murdered in the shadow of the Goblins' Playground. He wanted to develop the ancient woods. Dark powers do not tolerate meddlers, as others discover over the next few days. But DCI Arthur Ravyn suspects the work of a human hand, and he will not stop till he finds the truth, even if he has to battle the powers of hell and darkness. Welcome to Hammershire County, where change comes slowly, if at all, where the past often intrudes upon the present, and where old things sometimes refuse to die.

Autorenporträt

Ralph E. Vaughan is well known for his Sherlock Holmes and HP Lovecraft fiction, and was the first author to combine the literary worlds of Holmes and Lovecraft. That seminal story was The Adventure of the Ancient Gods, and has been translated into multiple languages. His pastiches have been collected in Sherlock Holmes: The Coils of Time & Other Stories and Sherlock Holmes: Cthulhu Mythos Adventures. His DCI Arthur Ravyn Mysteries, set in legend-haunted Hammershire County (England), have proved very popular with readers, as have his Folkestone & Hand Interplanetary Steampunk Adventures. His avid interest in ancient history led him to write Enigmas of Elder Egypt, a collection of essays examining the lesser known aspects of Egypt. On a lighter note, he is the creator of the Paws & Claws Mystery Adventures, stories of canine detectives who solve mysteries, protect the weak, and occasionally save the world. He is the author of some 300 published short stories, covering the period 1970-2010, about a tenth of which have been collected in Beneath Strange Stars.
