Death is not the end in this thriller, because there is some thing, some entity that wants to do harm, needs to do harm, feeds on harm and relishes the fear it instils. Wayne Frye, the writer called by one European critic the Rembrandt of Words, once again explores the supernatural with his latest Lynton adventure. In Ladysmith, British Columbia there is an undetected evil which has been lurking about for over one-hundred years in the mist covered mountainside forest just outside of town. Lynton Vinas arrives after her latest adventure in South Africa, expecting to enjoy a quiet respite from her demon-hunting before beginning her new job in a nearby town. However, when stepping onto the ferry to her new home on Vancouver Island, she notices a sinister-looking, dark, shadowy figure lurking at the rear of the ship. This is only the first sign of what is going to be a journey into the macabre; a stark warning that something with malevolent intentions is waiting in the forest that seems to be beckoning her into the darkness of evil.
