Yet the Chancel family's nightmare has only just begun. For brilliant and brutal killer Dick Dart is about to kidnap Nora Chancel, taking her on a terrifying trip that has alarming echoes of the story of Night Journey. Nora soon realises that to escape her obsessed captor she must first unravel the truth behind this mysterious book.

The Hellfire Club Reviews

'Far and away the best book Peter Straub has ever done ! moves like an express train. Dick Dart alone is worth the price of admission.' Stephen King 'Enough fearful twists for everyone ! wildly inventive, highly entertaining ! the story lifts off the page and soars irresistibly.' New York Times 'Powerful psychothriller suspense ! complex, intriguing, with multiple, meshing plots in which the sins of the past power the active evil of the present.' Washington Post 'Straub's most riveting read since Ghost Story ! a harrowing, spellbinding story.' Bradford Morrow
