5.0 out of 5 stars A classic creepy ghost story, 23 Mar 2008
Probably the best "ghost" novel of recent years, and all the better for it for having a rarely seen setting.

Ryan sets his tale on a remote corner of Ireland, and captures the feeling of desperation in the community perfectly.

It starts with a meeting with a phantom by the roadside, then steadily ratchets up the tension as the protagonist finds out the true cost of living in the community, and what must be done to placate those who don't sleep easily in their graves.

There are many genuinely suspenseful scenes, well developed characters, and sympathetic ghosts who are only doing what has to be done.

Creepy as hell, well constructed, beautifully written. It's a great pity that Ryan didn't write more in the genre.
