Description

Prayers sometimes land on the Devil’s ears. 

The year is 1964. A construction project in the town of Three Bridges, Pennsylvania unearths an ancient sewer. Inside is a mystery dating to the 19th century: The hidden skeletons of countless infants.

As the secrets of Three Bridges begin to surface, an ancient codex is discovered in the attic of a local orphanage. A bible containing writings in Lucifer’s own hand.

The parish priest and a church handyman set out to discover the truth. But a series of strange visions and horrifying tragedies begin, and the darkest secret of all becomes clear: The town of Three Bridges is marked, and the Devil is coming out to play.

For fans of Stephen King and Stranger Things.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Scars on the Face of God is a brilliant novel. Congratulations on hitting one out of the park...” (Jonathan Maberry, NYT best-selling author and winner of multiple Bram Stoker Awards)

“...Bauer writes with passion and intensity, tackling the mysteries of faith and fear. Hotter than the flames of hell.” (Scott Nicholson, author of Scattered Ashes, They Hunger, The Red Church, and The Harvest.)

"These characters...are exquisitely drawn, fully-fleshed beings that leap from the page to engage you in the plot...The writing is pitch-perfect, from the language used to the intricate weaving of plot threads. This is a talented writer, a name I will expect to find on New York Times best seller lists. (Kelly Jenkins, SF Crowsnest Review)

unexpected

As a Catholic, I have a love/hate relationship with Catholic based horror. I guess I'm also a sucker for punishment, because based on some of the reviews I read, I was expecting something hard-core anti-Catholic. However, I trusted Johnathan Maberry's comment on the cover and went for it. I'm glad I did.
This was great. Very atmospheric, well-researched, well written, with largely likable and realistic characters (even if the scenarios they found themselves in were not). I didn't even hate the possible "uh oh" twist at the end. The mystery aspect was solid and well plotted, and the horror aspect, well, it wasn't exactly scary, but it felt appropriate.
As for the anti-Catholic thing, I actually thought it was very fair, with some depictions of evil within the church, but also depictions of good. I was pleasantly surprised.
