Bitter Fruit Publisher's Summary

'CHILLING, SUSPENSEFUL BUT ALSO DEEPLY MOVING . . . TEMPEST BLACK IS A MAJOR TALENT'
Mark Billingham, #1 Sunday Times bestselling author

A killer with a gospel. A detective without faith.

On Easter morning, a body is found in the ruins of a church; decapitated, naked, knelt as if in prayer.

Detective Lewan Kane is deeply troubled by the harrowing scene: this ritualistic killer hasn't left a single trace.

In a quiet corner of Dublin, Ella Lonan is wrestling with her sanity, haunted by disturbing visions - severed heads on an altar, a young woman drowned by a black ocean.

When Kane appears in one such episode, Ella turns up at his office, desperate for answers.

Can Ella's visions help Lewan catch a killer? Or will they open the door to something even darker than death?

'One of the most compelling debuts in years. It ticks all the right boxes for lovers of quality crime fiction: the prose, the characters and last but not least the gruesome murder case at hand that leaves nothing to be desired'
Yrsa Sigurdardottir, international #1 bestselling author

'An atmospheric, multi-layered, twist-filled mystery led by two compelling protagonists, Bitter Fruit is a strikingly ambitious debut novel'
