About the Book
Black House continues the story of Jack Sawyer, a retired Los Angeles homicide detective who has moved to the small town of French Landing, Wisconsin. Jack is pulled out of retirement when a string of gruesome murders shakes the community.

With chilling twists and a richly atmospheric setting, this sequel expands on the world introduced in The Talisman while standing firmly as a masterpiece of its own.
