Fifteen-year-old Isobel Miller's life is tumultuous due to her Army Major father and pregnant, chain-smoking, alcoholic mother. Each relocation feels like another blow, and when they settle in the remote village of Langham, Isobel's resentment reaches its peak. She feels isolated and angry, especially towards the unborn sibling she never asked for, in a place lacking even basic amenities like street lighting.
In this bleak landscape, Isobel finds solace in her grandfather, a master storyteller whose tales provide a glimmer of light in her otherwise dismal existence. However, when a local newspaper features one of his darker stories, Isobel is unwittingly thrust into a world of malevolence and devil worship. A mysterious book, an ominous harbinger, triggers a series of catastrophic events, plunging Isobel and those around her into a spiral of tragedy and despair.
In the midst of chaos, Isobel finds unexpected allies in three other teenagers-Peter, Oswald, and Ariel. Together, they forge a bond strong enough to withstand the onslaught of darkness, or so they believe. As they confront the forces of evil, they soon realize that their greatest adversary might not be of this world. In a battle against the infernal, their friendship and courage will be tested like never before, and the stakes could not be higher-nothing less than their souls, hang in the balance.

About the Author
Elizabeth Wixley was born in Hertfordshire in the United Kingdom but has moved many times during her childhood. She attended the Camberwell Art School and joined a design studio in Convent Garden. Moving to Bristol, some years later, she worked full time for the Local Education Authority supporting children suffering from emotional and behavioural difficulties, whilst ensuring that the transition into a mainstream school was done in a supportive and nurturing manner. Whilst providing children with a safe haven for learning, she raised two sons as a single parent while studying for a degree in education at the University of the West of England.
Her love of fiction started at the age of six when Elizabeth's grandmother died of cancer and to ensure that the rest of the family was safe, she would spend the nights roaming the house looking for the 'C' monster to make sure that he did not claim any more victims.
One sunny bright day, her sister told her that fork lightning would come and strike her down after which she would spend her days hiding in the garage and when she heard that the sun was falling out of the sky, well needless to say, she very seldom ventured out.
With trial and error, Elizabeth soon realized to fight her foes, she had to stare them straight in the eye, explore them and conqueror the inner demons in order to stand righteous. This helps fuel her love of horror and the many mysteries of the world. Creating a why and what if scenario that runs prominent in her fascinating fiction.
Throughout Elizabeth's life, creative arts have been her passion whether it is visiting galleries, painting or writing. She enjoys nothing more than sharing a compelling horror story with others and holding the sanity of her readers in the palm of her hand.
