One Crooked Thing Timothy Roderick

What you don't know can kill you.


Something sinister has followed Ren Larson home through the dark winding roads of Los Angeles. Since he began investigating a series of murders, it has made its presence known. It murmurs in shadowed hallways. It watches from mirrors and whispers to his six-year-old child. It waits. His doctor says he's got a case of war nerves. His housekeeper warns of a malevolent spirit, maybe only folklore from her Caribbean childhood. But no one can stop the foul thing, she says, until it devours the soul for which it hungers--a soul that has ripened with a secret sin.
