In a sleepy steel-mill town, the best battle between Good and Evil is going to begin .

Sinnissippi Park, in Hopewell, Illinois, has longer hidden a mysterious evil, locked away from humankind by capabilities greater than most might even imagine. But now the malevolent creatures that normally skulk in the shadows from the park grow bolder, and old secrets hint at a violent explosion.

Caught between them is usually fourteen-year-old Nest Freemark, who senses that something is certainly terribly incorrect but hasn’t yet learned to wield the budding power that models her aside from her friends.

Now the continuing future of humanity depends upon a guy haunted by his dreams and a gifted young girl–two souls who’ll uncover what survives when wish and innocence are shattered forever . . .
