What to expect
Produced internationally in London and Los Angeles, John Sinclair is an audio drama series—blockbuster cinema for your ears only, a breathtaking mixture of gothic horror and fast-paced action paired with an audio-rich atmosphere for your aural pleasure.
There are so many ways a person can die. Sooner or later, everyone’s number is up, and no one comes back—or do they?
On a cold November night, a grieving father picks up his hunting rifle and shoots his only daughter in the head. The police are mystified. Why was the girl even at the house? Why wasn’t she at the mortuary … awaiting her burial? After all, Mary Winston had been declared dead two days before. The incident is only the first in a series of mysterious attacks in the small Scottish town of Middlesbury. Dead bodies go missing. A cemetery caretaker is devoured alive. An ancient curse is about to be unleashed.
Detective Chief Inspector John Sinclair works for Scotland Yard’s Special Division, an elite unit that deals with extraordinary cases. DCI Sinclair is a battle-hardened veteran of Afghanistan, a man haunted by the past, but nothing could have prepared him for the horrors he’s about to face. He goes to Scotland to investigate the gruesome murders, but what he finds is a town in the grip of fear. The people of Middlesbury are harboring a secret. A secret that is about to explode.
Critics Review
-
“A hero so suave and dashing, he makes James Bond look like a grubby detective sergeant, a plot that reads like it came straight from the great vaults of Hammer, and enough action and derring do to keep even the most ardent pulp fan smiling with glee…A tight, punchy read that heralds the start of a great new series of pulp horror. Highly recommended.”
