Description
Herbert North has gotten real good at getting on the bad side of most people. He has a few redeeming qualities—at times, if one is drunk enough, he’s mildly funny—but perhaps the best thing anyone can say about him is this:
He’ll do what no one else will, and he’ll do it better than those that could ever would.
After all, being a supernatural investigator isn’t the most glamorous of jobs, nor does that the threat of death and retribution make the most rewarding.
But Herbert knows his place in the world, so it doesn’t take much for him to accept his assignment from Seth, his partner. Not terribly worried, Herbert travels across the sea, to the small, English village of Cairn, where the townsfolk are having a hard time keeping the dead in the ground and the living alive.
Fortunately for Herbert, Cairn is a village of new beginnings. If he’s looking to start over, to do away with some of his more unsavory qualities, there’s no better a place. Because the queen there in her kingdom of filth is forgiving—and eager to add more to her squalid court.
“That Which Walks Behind the Graves†is both a sequel to “House of a Thousand Hearts†and an integral part of the “Bones of the Earth†universe.
August 2015: Entire story has been rewritten and professionally edited. Previous owners should receive an update if purchased through Amazon. Otherwise, please contact author.
