When fate reunites them, they must confront an unimaginable horror that shatters their understanding of reality itself—dark forces that have forever overshadowed the entire world. But now, an even more frightening one looms on the horizon. Will their bond be strong enough to face the macabre truth that threatens to engulf us all? Dive into a tale where nightmares intertwine with the fabric of existence, and discover what it truly means to confront the unthinkable.

Author and reviewer Michael Brookes said:
"The book starts well and has a 'Books of Blood' [Clive Barker] vibe which really works well. It's in these tales that the author's writing ability shines. He demonstrates a lovely turn of phrase and some of the writing is almost poetic in its beauty."
