Overview

The water remembers. It remembers every offering, every death, every prayer left unanswered. Long before the Norman conquest, a river god ruled the valley of Syndercombe—a spirit of blessing and blood, sustained by devotion. When the Christians came, they built churches and walled the old god away. But gods don’t die; they wait. Centuries later, the valley was drowned to build a reservoir, burying its church, its graves, and the restless war between faiths. Now, as drought cracks the land and bodies rise from the depths, something ancient has awoken. Lorne Turner, scarred soldier and reluctant seer, comes to investigate the violence that follows—a rash of possessions, drownings, and madness. What he finds is a feud older than history: a vengeful pagan deity and the spirit of the Norman knight who sought to bind it. Caught between their struggle, Lorne, Heather, and Ella are drawn into a maelstrom of grief and fury that threatens to consume them all. Each haunting stirs the war he carries inside. To save the living, Lorne must face the beast behind his eyes and learn why bad waters run deepest where the human heart breaks. Bad Waters Run Deep is book five in the Lorne Turner supernatural mystery thrillers—an atmospheric, soul-dark thriller of ancient faith, broken families, and the ghosts of wars that never end. _____________________________________________ Praise for the Lorne Turner Supernatural Thrillers: ★★★★★ “An engaging supernatural mystery.” ★★★★★ “The Exmoor landscape is equally important a character as the hero.” ★★★★★ “Creepy supernatural thriller.” ★★★★★ “Loads of surprises, the twists and turns kept you reading.” ★★★★★ “The author’s style of writing is descriptive, suspenseful and atmospheric…” ★★★★★ “Talon definitely knows how to put the creep in creepy…” ★★★★★ “Harrowing Occult Thriller.” ★★★★★ “Fast paced, twists, turns, spooks…” ★★★★★ “It’s full of action with a heavy dose of suspense.” ★★★★★ “This gem is filled with old graves, old bones, curses, darkness, love and loss…""

Author Information

Joe Talon is an author used to walking in a place where you're never quite certain if the world is full of rainbows or shadows. Real life holds little interest. Having grown up on Exmoor, Joe has been fascinated by the mysterious and spooky places that dwell in the dark woodlands and quiet combes. In Joe's first series, the world is a little sideways from ours. It is full of shapes moving on the edge of our vision when they shouldn’t and cold spots in warm places. For Joe, there is always the question, 'what would I do if'? When writing crime, Joe tangles with gangsters and dealers, murderers and thieves, all in the small town of Glastonbury. A place known for its otherness. Joe's Cornish adventures once more explore the supernatural blending with real world events. If you would like to know more, do come and join the Taloneers. You can easily find Joe in the usual haunts of writers, (I'm not allowed to give you my digital address). There are all kinds of mysteries and fun to be had. What spare time Joe has is spent with seven dogs, lots of walks, chaotic gardening, and exploring the strange worlds just the other side of what we think we know to be real. Who needs real life when there are books!
