Joe Mac was a legendary homicide detective until his vision was lost in the line of duty and he was forced into retirement. Now he lives a life of darkness, his only friend being a huge Raven that Joe Mac names “Poe.”
But when Joe Mac’s grandson is murdered by an unknown killer, Joe emerges from his self-imposed solitude to resurrect the skills of the detective he once was. And, although he is blind, Joe Mac begins to hunt down his tiny grandson’s murderer.
Led in some dark way by Poe, Joe Mac relentlessly tracks a force that literally owns the darkness, uses the darkness, and belongs to the darkness. For the force he is tracking has fed upon this world for thousands of years, and has never known defeat. It kills like demons, disappears like ghosts, and leaves nothing alive. But Joe Mac is determined to follow this road to Hell no matter the cost. He will find whoever it was that so mercilessly killed his young grandson, and he will deliver justice … even if it costs him his life.
Fearlessly following the clues, he tracks the murderers of his grandson into the deepest, most dangerous heart of ancient nightmares. And with each haunting step into that darkness, Joe Mac realizes that he has somehow challenged a power that has destroyed nations and conquered continents. And the death they have delivered to the Earth reaches back to the beginning of the world …
It is a battle that will take Joe Mac to the edge of sanity and beyond …
“Huggins knows how to grab your attention and not let go. A highly skilled, but blind ex-detective is drawn out of retirement when his grandson is murdered in a sadistic, ritualistic way. There’s horror lurking around each corner, but the investigator is aided by a mystical raven, who’s powers come in handy in this battle against the forces of darkness.” – Peter Eichsteadt, award wining author of BORDERLAND

Thank you Mr Huggins for giving me so much delight and enjoyment through your novels. I have read everything you’ve written. I even purchased several copies of A wolf Story, Cain and Rora to give away to friends.
Just completed Dark Visions, which led me to purchase a book on Ravens.
Blessings and thanks again. Gil

A few days ago my husband tossed Dark Visions on the bed saying,”Look who wrote another book!” I just finished it. The suspense was painfully strong, but that was no surprise. The surprise I feel with each of Huggins’ works is how intriguing the worlds he creates are, and how attached I become to the characters. Huggins please write a sequel immediately!
