The second book in a new trilogy from Joseph Delaney, the author of the internationally best-selling Last Apprentice series.

Tom Ward is now spook of the county, and with his apprentice, Jenny, he continues the fight against boggarts, witches, and terrifying new creatures of the dark. Together with the witch assassin, Grimalkin, Tom and Jenny lead an army into battle against a dangerous enemy--but it all goes catastrophically wrong. The situation seems hopeless until Alice--Tom's lost love and a powerful witch--appears. But Alice had turned to the dark: can Tom trust her now?

Joseph Delaney's deliciously scary imagination continues Tom's saga, introducing new readers to the struggle against the encroaching dark and taking longtime fans back to familiar settings, where they will find old friends--and old enemies.
