The Hand of the Devil is a 2006 fantasy horror novel written by Dean Vincent Carter. It is centred on a young man named Ashley Reeves, a journalist for a science magazine Missing Link. He receives a letter from a Reginald G. Mather to see the only example of the Ganges Red mosquito on his island in the Lake District. Agreeing to his terms, Ashley travels to the island alone, and becomes stranded, and what was once a good story quickly transforms into a macabre nightmare.
