Mutual enemies. Opposite worlds. She fled to keep him safe. He won't stop until he finds her.
Waapikoona's journey home was supposed to be a respite from the chaos that tore her from her path in Missouri. Bad news and new grief cut the warm welcome short. Even armed with the perfect clue to find her sister's abuser, the danger she faces is all too ... real.
Mick feels like the most unqualified of heroes. Too much to do brings too many mistakes and distracts him from his hunt for Waapikoona. When an unexpected guest arrives in his woods, urgency electrifies his search. It's no longer just his life that depends on finding Waapikoona.
The creatures of the underworld are multiplying. Growing bolder. And now threatening more than just Mick. He can't solve anything without Waapikoona, but someone else has found her first-someone who wants her dead. She's been raised from her grave once. Twice would be a miracle.
