Richard Chizmar, award-winning author of A Long December , and Brian James Freeman, acclaimed author of The Painted Darkness, have combined forces to create an old-fashioned tale of horror, full of good and evil, with a breathtaking ending that will leave you wondering when this particular old man might be coming for you...
