Discover the utterly addictive southern gothic horror saga by that is sweeping Europe, over two million copies sold so far. 'Riveting, terrifying, and just absolutely great' Stephen King The second book in the gothic horror phenomenon that is sweeping across Europe, with over 2 million copies sold 'RIVETING, TERRIFYING...JUST ABSOLUTELY GREAT' STEPHEN KING Perdido, Alabama, has scarcely recovered from the floods that devasted the community. Now a scheme to build a levee is dogged by a series of mysterious events- unpredictable currents in the river, worrying disappearances. Meanwhile in the Caskey family, Marie-Love, the matriarch, continues her machinations against Elinor, her strange daughter in law. Plots, unholy alliances, sacrifices - in the struggle between them, nothing is off limits. In Perdido, the changes will be profound; the consequences irreversible.
