Are you prepared to face what comes from the Loch? Prepared for the unbelievable? Reviewers say they couldn't put the book down."Then he saw it; huge, black, dripping pulling the model down and dragging the boat with it. As he yelled, the thing turned to look at him. Hayden swallowed and backed as far away as he could. It was the most evil looking thing he had ever seen. Its eyes were yellow and cold, bigger than dinner plates, and as it opened its mouth he saw rows of serrated teeth. It was no dinosaur, certainly not one he had ever seen in a book; it was something not quite of this world. All this raced through his head as he stood quaking before the creature. He felt something warm on his legs and realised he had wet himself in fear."A tale of murder, myth, monsters and a bit of magic set in modern day Loch Ness.Several university researchers meet at the Loch, all pursuing their own research.

Billy Joe thought of himself as beyond the restrictions of the common herd. He was free to do his own will as no other was, above limits and laws, past apprehension, unreachable, untouchable, an entity unto himself alone. This is what he thought. But this is not what he was. Everything he did served the will and the interests of a force far older and deeper than he would ever reach. In comparison, he was like a child playing with blocks. He served a master who was loyal to no one, just as he was loyal to no one. There were many men like Billy Joe in the world, less accomplished in their evil, but moving deliberately down that ancient staircase into the 'Dark Splendor'. One part crime novel and one part occult thriller, the book takes us behind the veil of appearances into a world where nothing is what it seems. Set against the backdrop of the island of Maui, the pacing grips us from the first page and sends us at a gallop on a white-knuckled ride featuring serial killers, drug dealers, horrific murder, martial artists, reincarnation, ceremonial magic, a black magician and an immortal Tibetan Master. For pure enjoyment and surprise this book is guaranteed to remain in your thoughts ...
