Publisher's Synopsis
It's hard enough being a demon hunter, but what do you do when there's a demon inside you and, not just that, it's keeping you alive? Mike Travis has such a dilemma, on top of which, his family life is in chaos; his wife, Beth, is lost in her own world following emotional and spiritual trauma, and his daughter has fled to Avalon and safety. He's glad when a phone call from an old friend takes him to a Welsh village near the Wales/England border. The village is steeped in 'traditions' that were keeping an ancient evil at bay - traditions that go back to an iron-age sacrifice that was made to create a pact with a demon. It is Midwinter and the pact has been broken, leaving the demon Mazziqin free to claim her victims. Midwinter - the Winter Solstice - is a time of death and renewal, of offering and sacrifice. It is a time of dying. Mike must work with his friend and fellow hunter, Ben Lovecraft, to free this community from Mazziqin and her lover - Lucifer - before Midwinter's Night
