The Red Dove (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783952555439)

In a dusty attic, college student Amanda discovers a letter by a Serbian uncle she never knew about. Her panicked mother pleads with her to let it go, convinced her brother was killed by an evil spirit called "the Red Dove". Dismissive of such superstition - and hoping her uncle might still be alive - Amanda sets out to track him down.

But, in Serbia, Amanda makes a shocking discovery. Her uncle's tiny village no longer exists: all the inhabitants wiped out fourteen years ago, in a bizarre massacre. The local police was left dumbfounded; their only evidence hinting at something that Amanda already knows the name of...

Determined to learn more, Amanda teams up with the retired detective who led the original investigation. Together, they scour the Balkans, attempting to unravel the mysteries of the village and of her uncle's death.

As her discoveries grow ever more disturbing and dark forces gather around her, Amanda must decide how much she is willing to pay for the truth.
