Foul Deeds Will Rise

From the award-winning author of Myra, Beyond Saddleworth.

A novel that dares to look unflinchingly at a subject the media have turned away from.

Alma Black is a campaigning journalist who travels to Orkney to interview Hugh Watts, a troubled survivor of childhood Satanist abuse. Through listening to the terrible details of his story, she is forced to confront the demons in her own past.

As the summer solstice approaches, Alma is drawn into events she can't control. Not all that happens on Midsummer Night is a delicious Dream...

Jean Rafferty is an award-winning journalist. Her first novel, Myra, Beyond Saddleworth, was short-listed for the inaugural Gordon Burn prize.

Foul Deeds Will Rise Is as dark and menacing as Hamlet. It is horrifying until it becomes plausible.' ~ Edmund White, author of The Farewell Symphony and recipient of the PEN/Saul Bellow Award.
