| Publisher Description: Two cousins, devastated by a childhood prank, reunite twenty years later to renovate a castle in Eastern Europe. The fortress has a bloody history that stretches back hundreds of years. Amid extreme paranoia and eerie silence, the men reenact the signal event of their youth, with even more catastrophic results. And as the full horror of their predicament unfolds, a prisoner--jailed for an unnamed crime--recounts an unforgettable story that brings the crimes of the past and present into stunning alignment. |
