THE PROTAGONIST WHO DEFINES THE WORD ORDINARY,

becomes embroiled in an old and grave story not of his

wanting. With the likeness of the common man, his

desire for love and acclaim may have misled him a step too far.

As unimaginable dark forces escape, as authorities question his

innocence and his beautiful but begrudging companion in his

face, his odds of surviving are slim if not zero. To conquer one if

not all will take more than just prayers. To do that, he may have to

become the man he's never been: and face the unthinkable.

A catastrophic confrontation is in the cards.

The last word left Mitchell's pen on Halloween, a fitting

day for his epic fantasy inspired by an ancient but barely

remembered upstate NY superstition. A Canadian of English

origin, Mitchell followed in his father's footfalls and put to

paper his roaming imagination. Drawing inspiration from the

archaic ruins and legends that were his playground as a youth,

but mindful of the laws of science, he crafted his story not to

trespass into the impossible, but to blur the line of reality and

myth.
