Thriller set in Ghent (author Helen Grant talks about Ghent as a location)
- Book: Demons of Ghent
- Location: Ghent
- Author: Helen Grant
This excellent thriller follows on from the first book in the trilogy, Silent Saturday (set in Tervuren and Brussels) and Veerle is picking up her life, living with her Father and his partner. She is an avid climber and regularly goes to practice on the local Climbing Wall. Her ability to scale the dizzying heights of the rooftops of Ghent (“the mountains of Ghent”) are essential once she spots faces from the past. Evil Joren Sterckx is dead, isn’t he? Did she really catch sight of Hommel? Is Death stalking the streets once again -people are dying, falling from heights – are the Demons of Ghent responsible?
Teenager Veerle has very real issues facing her at home, coming to terms with events in her past and now living with her Father in his blended family – not to mention love interests….A cracker of a thriller that will keep YA (and older) readers absolutely enthralled.
