Overview

The wind turns on Exmoor’s edge. A holy spring speaks of danger. Lorne Turner and his team are called to Watchet when elderly parishioners report strange visitations at Saint Decuman’s healing well. The old stories say the saint protects his flock. Now the warnings feel urgent, and the town is listening. What begins at the churchyard spills into the streets. The Devil’s Mercenaries are pushing a new designer drug, and a cult calling itself the Watchers promises a different kind of high. The trail runs back to an old alchemist whose legacy refused to stay buried, and to hauntings that rise whenever the wrong hands stir the past. With Ella, the village vicar, and Heather at his side, Lorne follows the trail through harbour lanes and sea-wet churchyards, tracking bikers, converts, and the pipeline that links them. Every step shortens the fuse. The town feels ready to ignite, and Lorne knows exactly what pulling the trigger will cost. The Alchemist’s Corpse is book six in the Lorne Turner Supernatural Thrillers, set in England across Exmoor and the Somerset coast, where saintly legends and alchemy collide with gangs and cults. ____________________________________________ 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!
