Publisher's Synopsis
Walter F. Ludwell is pulled into another world where he is made to witness the slow exorcism of consummate evil. The line between love and hate is blurred as he half-willingly takes part in confronting a bloodthirsty murderous vampire. By turns courageous and cowardly, great-hearted and inconsiderate, wise and foolish, he is guided through a strange land by a mysterious ebony bird who is much more than he seems. Slowly it dawns on Walter that he is somehow participating in his own painful redemption.
