"'A FINELY CRAFTED SUPERNATURAL CRIME THRILLER... WITH RAZOR SHARP PROSE AND A BRISTLING ATMOSPHERE.' -The BookLife Prize
A missing girl whose bloodline traces back to the Salem Witch Trials is the perfect prize for a demonic cult operating on the fringes of Salem’s witchcraft underground.
Desperate to find his missing niece, a Boston police captain loans his best detective, Ray Hanley, to Salem PD to lead the investigation. But tensions flare when Ray is partnered with Elena Martinez, a rookie detective who resents his intrusion on her first big case.
As they navigate a treacherous landscape of occult rituals and black magic, the horrific discovery of additional victims deepens the mystery and hints at a more sinister plot… one involving a powerful enemy whose secrets include ancestral ties, malevolent forces, and the fulfillment of a dark prophecy.
As the days count down to Halloween, the race is on to stop an unspeakable evil from plunging Salem into eternal darkness.

From the award-winning author of THE ART OF DYING
Although THE BURYING POINT picks up where THE ART OF DYING leaves off, it follows Detective Ray Hanley on a completely new case that can be read as a standalone novel.
“An unpredictable blend of crime and horror… The Burying Point grabs from the first pages with crisp, focused prose and dialogue-driven scenecraft.” –BookLife Reviews (Editor’s Pick)
“A brilliant and unmissable dance with the devil. Salem witch lore has rarely been as terrifying as it is in The Burying Point.” –Bestthrillers.com
“[Cavignano’s] fictionalized version of Salem makes for a wonderfully spooky backdrop… An effectively atmospheric crime novel that pits no-nonsense cops against wicked Massachusetts magic.” –Kirkus Reviews"
"When the children of Glenwood begin vanishing one by one, baffling local and federal authorities alike, the idyllic New England suburb becomes anything but a utopia.
Built upon the ruins of a lost colony, Glenwood harbors a long-forgotten secret, and when three strangers are lured into the midnight woods by the phantom of a Puritan boy, they discover the truth of the town's dark past and must face a vision of its bloody future.
Together, this unlikely trio—Jay, an alcoholic school teacher, Tim, a wise-cracking new kid in town, and Sarah, a nine-year-old with a handful of imaginary friends—must find a way to rescue the town from a terrifying supernatural force to prevent history from repeating itself.
Contains mature themes."
