From the Back Cover
Warning: Not to be Read after Dark
"The Spook s trained many, but precious few completed their time," Mam said, "and those that did aren t a patch on him. They re flawed or weak or cowardly. They walk a twisted path taking money for accomplishing little. So there s only you left now, son. You re the last chance. The last hope. Someone has to do it. Someone has to stand against the dark. And you re the only one who can."
Thomas Ward is the seventh son of a seventh son and has been apprenticed to the local Spook. The job is hard, the Spook is distant and many apprentices have failed before him. Somehow Thomas must learn how to exorcise ghosts, contain witches and bind boggarts. But when he is tricked into freeing Mother Malkin, the most evil witch in the County, the horror begins . . .
