The Glass Demon

Publisher: Penguin

Legend has it that Bonschariant, the demon, haunts a medieval stained glass window and emerges from it to bring death and destruction to anyone who sees him.

Lin’s father is a medieval historian who seeks the glass because it is priceless and will bring him fame and fortune.

He drags his reluctant family off to Germany to pursue his ambition. Almost immediately they come across a dead body. Their German informant mysteriously drowns and a grave is desecrated.

Lin starts to investigate as her family is threatened by what seem to be both human and supernatural forces. Can she find the glass and save her family?

With its chilling, claustrophobic atmosphere and strong, believable characters, this is a gripping thriller.
