Dead man's fingers?

Sorry for such little info but can anybody remember the actual title of a novel.
Its called something like ' dead mans fingers' or dead man walking' now out of print but been recommended on here a few times over the last few yrs, i've searched but cant find any of the threads.

To be honest i cant even remember exactly what it is about , think was to do with ancient msyteries.

thanks

check this list...anything ring a bell?
