But while Thomas is setting out to hunt down this malevolent force, Graeme is discovering his own mysterious connection to this alluring murderer. As Graeme is drawn into a new realm of darkness and Thomas learns that the killer may be closer to home than he thinks, the brothers find themselves on a collision course with not just each other but an entirely new world – and this world has hungers of its own ... Prepare to witness the origin of The Grim Reaper.
