About this listen

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.

Critic Reviews

"Deep, dark, and twisty...a gripping masterpiece of a thriller!" (Alex Grecian, New York Times best-selling author of The Yard)

"A superior thriller, at once stylish, absorbing and compulsive...a taut and chilling tale, expertly crafted...I was gripped from the very first page right up to that haunting denouement." (Laura Carlin, author of The Wicked Cometh)

"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, author of No Man's Land)
