We Are for the Dark

Summary

AN ISOLATED TOWN.

A MISSING PRIEST.

AN ANCIENT, HUNGRY DARKNESS.

When Father Shane Ryan is summoned to a meeting with His Eminence Cardinal Jacobs, he’s confused. A recently ordained priest at a small Maryland parish, Father Ryan should be far beneath the notice of His Eminence. But when he arrives, the Cardinal opens by laying out Father Ryan’s past as an FBI analyst, and the pieces slot into place. It seems a priest has gone missing, and the case is … unusual.

Weeks ago, Constable Miriam Rideout from the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary fielded a frantic call from a priest on a remote Newfoundland island. He begged for help, but then the line went dead. When permission to perform a wellness check is denied by her superiors, Miriam takes some vacation time and books a ticket on the ferry, determined to prove her worth.

Thrown together on the island, Father Ryan and Miriam don’t exactly get along—not at first, anyway. But there’s something very, very wrong on this island, something very old and very hungry waiting for them in the shadows.

And they’re going to need each other if they have any chance at escape.
