The Lunatic's Curse

A tale of madness, mystery and man-eating monsters by the deliciously dark F. E Higgins - now in paperback!

Deep within the heart of the Moiraean Mountains lies the town of Opum Oppidulum - home to the freezing Lake Beluarum and it's rumoured monster. An inescapable asylum stands in the centre of the lake, enclosed by the sheer cliffs of Drop Rock island. When Ambrose Grammaticus, famous inventor and master engineer, viciously attacks his own son, Rex, he is hauled to the island and imprisoned. Rex knows his evil stepmother, Acantha, is behind his father's 'madness', but how can he prove it? Only the asylum holds the answers . . .

A savage story of treachery, lunacy, greed, revenge and pure unadulterated wickedness.
