Ritual by Mo Hayder
“If you read the Devil of Nanking you know that this author pulls no punches. Set in the not-so-idyllic seaport of Bristol, England, this edgy story of death, drugs and African witchcraft tests the limits of the investigating officers — a woman police diver whose parents died in a deepwater pit: bodies never found, and the male detective whose brother was the victim of a pedophile: body never found. Both suffer from “survivor guilt” and are determined to solve the mystery presented by the disappearance of a young drug addict and the finding of his cut-off hands.”
