Wenn die Rauhnächte anbrechen und der kalte Wind durch die verschneiten Gassen des Harzes pfeift, erwacht die uralte Macht der Frau Percht. Mit ihrem Gefolge wandelt sie auch durch die Gassen des kleinen Harzörtchens Stolberg, auf der Suche nach den Seelen, die ihren alten Gesetzen trotzen. Sie wird fündig, bei Caro, einer jungen Harzbewohnerin, die meist ihre eigenen Wege geht und nicht viel von den alten Riten und Bräuchen hält. So bringen die Nächte dem Harz nicht nur Frost und Schnee, sondern auch den grausamen Zorn der Frau Percht und ihrem Gefolge. Niemand ist sicher vor ihrem Urteil, wenn die Grenzen zwischen den Welten dünn werden und die Geister vergangener Zeiten ihren Weg zurückfinden.

When you are within my walls, I am God. I have always been here and I will always be. I have complete dominion. I control what you see, what you feel, and how you think. I will bend reality to whatever I wish. I will show you your worst fears and make you indulge in your darkest desires. Your pain is my pleasure. Your tears are my ambrosia. Your despair is my joy. I will break you. I will ruin you. Once you enter me, there is no escape. I will own you, forever. From Wonderland Book Award winning author, Garrett Cook, comes a haunted house novel unlike any you've ever read. Told entirely from the perspective of the haunting, A GOD OF HUNGRY WALLS is a perverse, violent, and soul-crushing take on supernatural horror.
