Two abandoned souls are on the hunt for one powerful man. Soon, their paths will cross and lead to one twisted fate.

Danny Hansen is a Bosnian immigrant who came to America with hopes of escaping haunted memories of a tragic war that took his other's life. Now he's a priest incensed by the powerful among us who manipulate the law for their own gain, uncaring of thes hattered lives they leave behind. It is his duty to show them the error of their ways, even if he must put them in the grave.

Renee Gilmore is the frail and helpless victim of one such powerful man. Having escaped his clutches, she now lives only to satisfy justice by destroying him, regardless of whom she must become in that pursuit.

But when Danny and Renee's paths become inexorably entangled things go very, very badly and neither of them may make it out of this hunt alive.

Review:

An amazing novel, utterly compelling, the story of an abandoned girl and a strange, vengeful priest whose paths eventually cross - with terrifying consequences. Intensely readable, well written, and completely original. * Douglas Preston * Skilfully written, surprising, and impossible to put down . . . his best novel to date. This is an extremely well-thought-out novel, precisely plotted, and, like a good magic trick, deceptive and startling. A daring and completely riveting thriller. * Booklist * 'Perfect entertainment. Beguiling, compelling, challenging, and riveting - fantastic gimmick-free storytelling. Don't pass this one up. * Steve Berry * It's smart enough to realize that, for many, the scariest thing in life isn't a monster or something that bumps in the night. It's love. Love is terrifying. And powerful. And unstoppable. And if you don't already know that, you're about to see why. THE PRIEST'S GRAVEYARD will haunt you - long after you want it to. * Brad Meltzer * A thrill-a-minute ride, with heart-pounding action and a twist that you'll never see coming. * Tess Gerritsen *
