"Recovering from an unthinkably violent trauma, Marcus Banyon comes to perceive a different reality. Have his eyes been opened to forces long hidden from the rest of humanity, or has he suffered a psychotic break as his doctors suggest? As he retreats to an isolated chalet with is also-recovering wife and his oldest friend, Marc's visions lead them to an ancient mythology steeped in mystery and terror ... and to a trio of sinister beings who hold the fate of the world in their hands."--Half t.p.
