Gideon Frayne has spent his whole working life as a policeman in the village of Dark on Bodmin Moor. It's not life in the fast lane, but he takes it very seriously, and his first missing-child case is eating him alive. When his own boss sends in a psychic to help with the case, he's gutted - he's a level-headed copper who doesn't believe in such things, and he can't help but think that the arrival of clairvoyant Lee Tyack is a comment on his failure to find the little girl. But Lee is hard to hate, no matter how Gideon tries. At first Lee's insights into the case make no sense, but he seems to have a window straight into Gideon's heart. Son of a Methodist minister, raised in a tiny Cornish village, Gideon has hidden his sexuality for years. It's cost him one lover, and he can't believe it when this green-eyed newcomer stirs up old feelings and starts to exert a powerful force of attraction. Gideon and Lee begin to work together on the case. But there are malignant forces at work in the sleepy little village of Dark, and not only human ones - Gideon is starting to wonder, against all common sense, if there might be some truth in the terrifying legend of the Bodmin Beast after all. As a misty Halloween night consumes the moor, Gideon must race against time to save not only the lost child but the man who's begun to restore his faith in his own heart.… (mehr)

This was nice, and I was kept entertained. I'm curious about future cases with these two as well. There's a 'magical' element, which is not as much my thing I guess, so it took me a little while to work around to this one, but it was a tolerable amount of unexplained happenings and not too hokey.

This shorter work nevertheless manages to contain some very good characters, including a sweet and strange dog and something no one ever sees, a creepy mystery satisfyingly (if creepily) solved, and an "insta-love" romance I totally bought. So yes, I am glad this is #1 of ? ( )

A nice, atmospheric piece set in Cornwall. ( )

Couldn't get into the story. I listened to the audible edition, so I might read the book on my own later. It did seem like something I'd enjoy, so it deserves another chance. For now though, 2 stars. ( )

As usual Harper Fox writes the landscape almost as another character. Mysterious, evocative, and creepy.

Lovely understated romance that in other, less talented, hands would have reeked of instalove.

Can I wait 'til Christmas to read the next one? We'll see.
