'A masterclass in suspenseful, character-driven prose fiction. Simply exceptional'

'A blood-pumping, nerve-shredding thriller . . . ingenious'

'Wildly entertaining . . . truly frightening'
(New York Times)


How do you find a killer when you're surrounded by madness?

1935. As Europe prepares itself for a calamitous war, six homicidal lunatics - the so-called 'Devil's Six' - are confined in a remote castle asylum in rural Czechoslovakia. Each patient has their own dark story to tell and Dr Viktor Kosárek, a young psychiatrist using revolutionary techniques, is tasked with unlocking their murderous secrets.

At the same time, a terrifying killer known as 'Leather Apron' is butchering victims across Prague. Successfully eluding capture, it would seem his depraved crimes are committed by the Devil himself.
Maybe they are... and what links him with the insane inmates of the Castle of the Eagles?

Only the Devil knows. And it is up to Viktor to find out.

Eleştirmen yorumları

A splendidly Gothic story, inspired by European folklore, it asks difficult questions about how we judge evil - including whether the Devil can show himself in human form. It is breathtaking.
A wildly entertaining story that grabs you on page 1 and drags you into its dark world kicking and screaming . . . a truly frightening story, one that gets under your skin slowly, then goes deep, like the tip of a butcher knife. I read the novel one snowy night by the fire, unable to sleep until I finished, then unable to sleep once I had
A blood-pumping, nerve-shredding thriller - elegant, edgy, ingenious. Craig Russell conjures not one but two unforgettable settings: Prague between the wars, pulsing with menace, and a Gothic mental asylum, as exciting a house of horrors as I've ever visited. You'll enter both with dread. You'll dwell in them with relish (A. J. Finn, New York Times bestselling author)
Steeped in the chilling folklore of Eastern Europe and echoing the dread of a barbaric war to come, The Devil Aspect snatches the reader by the lapels for a thrilling, twisting trip through the darkest corridors of the human mind (Daniel H. Wilson, New York Times bestselling author)
A tour de force: a clever and visceral thriller with a one-two-three knockout of an ending that left me dazed. (Lincoln Child, New York Times bestselling author)
Deep, dark, and twisty, The Devil Aspect will keep you up all night reading... With all the lights on Russell has created a gripping masterpiece of a thriller! (Alex Grecian, New York Times bestselling author)
Dark, stylish and packed with jaw-dropping twists, The Devil Aspect stayed with me long after I'd turned the final page. Part Gothic horror, part crime thriller, it's an astonishing piece of work (M. W. Craven)
A Gothic masterpiece in psychological horror and creeping dread, The Devil Aspect is as disturbing as it is compelling. Be prepared to read it in one sitting - and to sleep with the lights on for a long time to come (Neil Broadfoot)
Well-crafted gothic crime . . . more twists than a Chubby Checker album. A smart, atmospheric, and entertaining read
A superior thriller, at once stylish, absorbing and compulsive . . . a taut and chilling tale, expertly crafted against the backdrop of ethnic tensions in pre-Second World War Czechoslovakia . . . I was gripped from the very first page right up to that haunting denouement (Laura Carlin)
Deliciously authentic and darkly atmospheric . . . a game-changer for the world of crime fiction (Graham Smith)
Sensational serial killer novel . . . in which twists are both jaw-dropping and logical . . . a mind-blowing story line that will appeal to fans of Caleb Carr and Thomas Harris

This is writing at its very best, his descriptive work is second to none and his knowledge of the themes involved is extensively showcased. I truly recommend to anyone remotely interested in dark psychological horrors.

Unbelievable - A gripping listen from start to end

Great story and a great performance.
As always Russell has written a fantastic story. It’s a horror story this time but also a story about the period leading up to ww2 in Bohemia with the threatening horror from bordering Germany. The ending is sublime.

Magnific story

I’ve been with audible since 2010 and this is the best story I’ve listened to so far. For me, it was perfect. Brilliantly written, perfectly narrated. Dark, twisted and creepy AF! Genuinely terrifying in places, and wow! What an ending.

I’ve read/listened to all of Russell’s Lennox series and Jan Fabel series and loved them, particularly because they were read by Sean Barrett and I was disappointed that there weren’t any more from Russell read by Barrett, but I took a chance on this and I think Julian Rhynd-Tutt surpassed even Barrett’s talents in this one. He has the perfect voice for this story and drove the character development quite wonderfully, like the voice of a darkly twisted nightmare

I was listening to this one night with headphones as I drifted off to sleep. I awoke at some point in the night with the voice of Mr Hobbs in my ears and it scared the bejesus out of me! I’m fifty years old and have been reading roughly sixty to a hundred books a year for over a decade and this was the first time a book has ever genuinely put the frighteners on me! Couldn’t stop listening and didn’t want it to end

Bravo Messers Russell and Tutt. I cannot wait fir the next one from these two

Absolutely Brilliant
