Demonic horror aboard a ship carrying Lima’s waste
An attempted ritual in Lima’s trash-strewn backstreets coincides with a murdered drugrunner’s body beginning to move under an unnatural force. That disturbance reaches Port Callao, where the vast MV Lysicrates is loaded with hundreds of tonnes of refuse. On board are second-in-command Matthew Cotton and a young American student left behind by another vessel, as the cargo becomes central to the unfolding threat. The novel links urban waste, maritime isolation, and an ancient demonic presence, shifting its horror from the city’s outskirts to the confined world of a supertanker at sea.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Adult horror readers interested in demonic or supernatural threats
- Readers who enjoy horror set in maritime and industrial environments
- Fans of stories where an outbreak of danger travels from city streets onto a vessel

Alien, on a container ship.
'Scary and unputdownable', Stephen King
Amongst towering mountains of trash in the backstreets of Lima, three young boys are trying to raise an ancient demon. They don't think their incantation has worked; but that night a teenage drugrunner is gunned down across their makeshift altar. As his killers walk away, his body stirs. Not because it still contains a spark of life. But because something is stirring beneath it...
Port Callao. The MV Lysicrates, a three-quarter-mile long supertanker, is being loaded with hundreds of tonnes of trash. Watching from the bridge, in a bleary state of hungover gloom, is second-in-command Matthew Cotton; more interesting is the arrival of a young American student who has missed the boat she should have been on.
They should have paid more attention to the trash.
With its powerful blend of superb characterisation and demonic horror, Muriel Gray's new novel is her best yet.
