Bellman & Black: A Novel

From the instant #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Thirteenth Tale comes a â€œpoetic and mysteriousâ€ (Booklist) ghost story that will haunt you to your very core.

Caught up in a moment of boyhood competition, William Bellman recklessly aims his slingshot at a rook resting on a branch, killing the bird instantly. It is a small but cruel act, and is soon forgotten. By the time he is grown, with a wife and children of his own, William seems to have put the whole incident behind him. It was as if he never killed the thing at all. But rooks donâ€™t forgetâ€¦

Years later, when a stranger mysteriously enters Williamâ€™s life, his fortunes begin to turnâ€”and the terrible and unforeseen consequences of his past indiscretion take root. In a desperate bid to save the only precious thing he has left, he enters into a rather strange bargain, with an even stranger partner. Together, they found a decidedly macabre business.

And Bellman & Black is born.
