This book is a difficult one to review, because there is no way I can summarize it without spoiling it - every line, every idea, is an integral part of the whole, and to try to snip out any little bit ... well, it just won't work. Suffice it to say that this is an end-of-the-world idea, going into the relationships between brothers all the way back to Cain and Abel, and involving a secret society that has existed for at least that long as well. It's fascinating and, to a certain degree, makes some sense of that ancient story and why their god was so offended at the offering of fruits of the field over the blood of an innocent animal. You'll see what I mean - you really need to read this, whether you love horror, psychological suspense, end-of-the-world scenarios or just really beautifully clean writing, you will enjoy it.
