Seeking the Devil’s Eye
Dubric was summoned to The Reach to find an artist taken by the dark, but found the ghosts of twenty-three murdered young men instead, all violently tortured before they were killed. Despite the best efforts of Dubric and his team, Braoin Duncannon, the young artist they had been called to find, was murdered by a madman’s needle through his skull. Most of Dubric’s clues are lost to the river after the bodies are dumped—if the bodies are ever found at all—and local officials remain more concerned with blame than providing assistance. Despite numerous ghosts and limited clues, Dubric has to press on, has to find the thread leading him to Braoin’s killer, because the long-dead Demon of The Reach has returned to take Otlee into the dark.
