Penanggal (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798676132439)

No child will rest in peace.

When Matthew Dempster returns to England on furlough with his Malaysian bride, rest and relaxation elude them.
Troubling incidents and whispered rumours of a supernatural evil in Kampung Damai seem to have followed.

Women miscarry and waste away. Adults are fatally savaged and children devoured. Stories circulate of an escaped big cat or exotic pet, attacking from tunnels beneath the ancient streets of Nottingham.
The truth steals courage from the stoutest heart and threatens the sanity of any who face it.

A kaleidoscope of individuals, each with a fragment of the puzzle, cross paths during their personal search for answers.

Will anyone uncover the beast?

How do you defeat a creature whose existence defies all natural laws?
