Synopsis (Amazon)
On the moor, not all the beasts walk on four legs.
On a windswept moor, a child emerges from the mist with a story no one wants to believe. The farmer who finds her assumes she’s simply lost. But when she utters a chilling phrase—“We went to see the old ones”—he realises something is terribly wrong.
As Detective Evan Warlow battles his own demons, he and the team are pulled into a case of ritualistic secrets, long-buried crimes, and the whispers of something darker lurking in the mist.
In the empty heart of Wales, legends are harmless. It’s the people you need to fear.
My Take
This book brings to a close a number of themes and stories that have been bubbling along for a swathe of titles in this series. In addition Evan Warlow is reminded very strongly of his own humanity.
A very satisfying read but you really need to have been reading the series to appreciate the structure.
Having said that, I have realised, looking at the list of what I've read, that I have missed a couple.

Book 17: A Word With The Dead:
