About the Book

Discover the BRAND NEW gruesomely gripping Medieval mystery from Kieth Moray, for fans of C. J. Sansom, Paul Doherty and E. M. Powell.

A man possessed.

A woman ravished.

There be demons in this place…

Malton, 1361. Justice of the Peace Sir Ralph de Mandeville arrives in the walled town of Malton and is instantly plunged into a twisted web of brutal murder, forbidden romance and dark superstitions.

What starts as a routine session of the peace turns into a much darker, more complicated state of affairs. One suspected count of self-murder quickly followed by a formal plea of mayhem is enough to keep Ralph and his assistants Peter and Merek on their toes, but tension erupts into outright terror when a string of gruesome, theatrical murders rocks the Ryedale wapentake.

As panic spreads and terrified townsfolk blame the horrific deaths on a ‘revenant’ - a vengeful, undead spirit rising from the grave to spread the pestilence - Sir Ralph refuses to let fear overrule logic. Instead, guided by his beloved wife’s locket around his neck, he must follow a bloody trail of clues to expose the superstitions from the very human monsters living in plain sight.

Praise for Keith Moray's Ralph de Mandeville series:

'If you like your serial killer tales backed with some spot-on medieval storytelling then this is the book for you.' Reader Review

'An exciting, absorbing and wonderfully dark historical thriller' Reader Review

'Dark and gripping!' Reader Review



About the Author :
I was born in St Andrews and studied medicine at the University of Dundee in Scotland. I lived and worked in Wakefield in Yorkshire for 40 years, within arrow-shot of the ruins of a medieval castle, the base for a series of historical novels. I am a retired GP, medical journalist and novelist, writing in several genres. As Keith Moray I write historical crime fiction in the medieval era and in ancient Egypt, The Inspector Torquil McKinnon crime novels set on the Outer Hebridean island of West Uist, and as Clay More I write westerns. Curiously, my medical background finds its way into most of my fiction writing. In my spare time I enjoy the movies, theatre and making bread. I play golf and I run at carthorse speed. As a frustrated actor I have found occasional solace as a supporting artist, but enough said about that! I now live in Stratford-upon with my wife Rachel and whichever of our children and grandchildren who happen to pop in.
