Jim Mcleod is on the run...

...from his responsibilities as a father, hiding out from his pregnant girlfriend, and working as a groundskeeper in a rural graveyard.

He's running from a lifetime of guilt and bad decisions, but principally he's running from the murderous entities that have possessed the very ground at his feet.

Jim has no idea what these entities are, but they've done unspeakable things to everyone in the graveyard and now they're hunting him down. There is nowhere Jim can hide, nowhere he can walk and nowhere he can run that isn't under the lethal power of the things in the ground. If he stands any chance of survival he must uncover the link between his murderous tormentors, three mysterious graves and an ancient heresy that stretches back to the beginning of time.

Run to Ground is a tale of extreme folk horror. It opens the reader's eyes to a terrifying new breed of gods and monsters, but be warned, within these pages you'll find blasphemy, brutality and unbelievable depravity the likes of which you've never read before.
