My rating: 2 of 5 stars

THE EXILED by WILLIAM MEIKLE

When several young girls are abducted from various locations in Edinburgh, Detective John Granger and his brother Alan, a reporter, investigate the cases from different directions. The abductor is cunning, always one step ahead, and the only clue he leaves behind at each scene are the brutalized corpses of black swans. 

To catch a killer, John and Alan Granger will have to battle the Cobbe, a strange and enigmatic creature that guards a magical country parallel to our own. The bird is a creature of horrific power that demands a heavy price for entry into its world. The fate of two realms hangs in the balance… and time is running out...

"Will we talk about the black bird?" 

Totally gripping, The Exiled delivers a killer story that will appeal to fans of both crime fiction and dark fantasy. - The Ginger Nuts of Horror
