Publisher's Synopsis
Darkness has fallen upon the town of Helstaad. A killer is stalking the streets and leaving victims bearing an ancient demonic summoning symbol. Into this unknown situation comes Korgar, the newest member of House Wolf, a society of warriors dedicated to destroying evil in any form it takes. Untested but capable, he is accompanied by Malin from his sister house, House Owl. Together they must solve the mystery. But the situation is more complicated than either Korgar or Malin can imagine; as the darkness grows in power, as the town descends into violence and as the killer strikes again, Korgar and Malin are forced to fight harder and put themselves in creasing danger in a desperate attempt to stop the return of the world-ending Old Dark.
