She thought she'd be safe in the country, but you can't escape your own nightmares and Lis London dreams repeatedly that someone is trying to kill her Lis thinks she's being paranoid - after all who would want to murder her? She doesn't believe in the local legends of witchcraft. She doesn't believe that anything bad will really happen to her. You never do, do you? Not until you're alone in the woods, after dark - and a twig snaps... Hollow Pike - where witchcraft never sleeps.
