LOVE. LOSS. OBSESSION. REDEMPTION.
Following the death of his ten-year-old son, physician Peter Croft embarks on a desperate, seemingly random search for a missing child, risking his sanity, even his life in a grief-induced quest. His journey propels him into the darkest reaches of human suffering, and pits him squarely against an adversary whose own obsession defies all reason.
Here After is a story of love, loss, obsession and redemption, with gripping action sequences and a subtle paranormal underpinning. A compelling read from a seasoned storyteller, Costello's sixth novel will keep you reading deep into the night.
Here After has been optioned to film by David Hackl, director of Saw V.
