They may never escape The Harbinger's darkness. But Aeryn Ravane won't stop trying. She and her young ward Theo travel north, away from the horrors they found in Pius. Just when they begin to settle into a new life, Theo crosses paths with evil of another sort. An evil with an insatiable appetite for children like Theo. The key to saving her may lie in a dark local legend about a creature that no one believes really exists. Finding the truth could cost both their lives.
