Publisher's Synopsis
The reluctant and unpopular Duke of Blackwood must stop a vicious rogue wizard stalking the town of Upton Myzzle. If the voices in his head would just let him concentrate, he'd be extremely grateful.
The very trees of the Blackwood are attacking the rain-soaked town and there is a new star in the night sky, with rumours of a great returning evil.
To make matters worse, he's pretty sure his father is losing his marbles-even as he tries to cling to power-and his daughter seems to have inherited a talent for finding trouble from her late mother.
Can the Duke turn the tide of events? Or will his town erupt in religious riots and open rebellion?
