Another good one from Clark, very dark & disturbing.

Another confirmation of Clark's warped world. Already placed 1 remaining book on my wish list and was elated to find a brand new novel on the local bookstore shelf. GREAT!

Great storyline. I like this story but the ending was unexpected.
A interesting book.Not as scary as i would like.
From the cover:
Life looks good for John Newton. He lives in the quiet village of Skelbrooke with his family. He has a new home and a successful career writing true crime books. He never gives a thought to the vast nearby cemetery known as the Necropolis. He never wonders what might lurk there.
Then the letters begin to arrive in the dead of night demanding trivial offerings--chocolate, beer, toys. At first John dismisses the notes as a prank. But he soon learns the hard way that they're not. For there is an ancient entity that resides beneath the Necropolis that has the power to demand things. And the power to punish those foolish enough to refuse.
