AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Smoke and ash. Wood and earth. You smelt it before you saw it. When the cursed Chapel on the hill burns to the ground, the authorities have some questions. Their suspects: the high school students seen there that night.

'An act of terror? Work of the divine? Or merely an accident? The Chapel, the Fire and the Dead Cat flashes between torch-lit glimpses of teenage misdemeanours. Piece by piece we are drawn deeper into the mystery, getting closer and closer to… something… and that something might just be supernatural.'
