From the flames of Man, straight to the flames of Hell. Recently orphaned by the bombing of Liverpool at the start of World War Two, Danny Kelly is evacuated to the relative safety of Colwyn Bay, unaware of the evil that awaits him there. Once there, he is cast into the oppressive realm of Satan and his acolytes, a world of escalating human sacrifice and voracious desires, lorded over by a village priest and his seemingly prim housekeeper. Will Danny, isolated, inexperienced and vulnerable, survive where so many others have recently succumbed? Or will there be another victim claimed by 'The House in Wales'?

“The House in Wales” is a very dark novel. Set during World War 2 it centers around the evacuation of young people to Wales, and one youth in particular. It is a tale of devil worship and sacrifice. It is disturbing in places. Definitely not for the faint-hearted.
