And now they are joined together again on a quest that could take them from the graveyards and fleshpots of the Far East to the human jungle of New York, hunting an inhuman ghost of the past risen from nightmare darkness to kill and kill ... "An enormously entertaining and scary story... rich, complex, dark and tough to put down." NEW YORK DAILY NEWS "A dead-centre hit... A gripping, enthralling, non-stop read."
