But their troubles are far from over. Their home has been over-run by enemy soldiers.

And it's on Mona that this small band fighting against the dark will face an old enemy grown terrifyingly powerful. Will they be able to vanquish an evil that crawls beneath the ground itself? At what cost?</p><p>Will Tom and the Spook ever be able to return home?</p>
