Description

Yarmian Eventyde finds himself in Coldharbor, where he assumes the identity of Eyan Ventine, an agent for a west coast businessman. It's a role that permits him to wander freely around the surprisingly 'civilised' east coast city, asking questions, sniffing for Lessers, and continuing to do the right thing.

There's a girl in Coldharbor, a beautiful, talented, artistic young woman, and to his own great shock, Yarmian finds himself falling head over heels with this stunning Coldharbor artisan.

But there's trouble in paradise for the young Wizzen; a gangster's son has taken a shine to the young woman too, and after dealing with that very real threat to his lady-love's welfare, Yarmian discovers an ancient, strange and really rather worrying superstition woven into the fabric of Coldharbor life.

Torn between love and duty, Yarmian finds himself travelling deep into Coldharbor's interior, seeking for the source of the material at the heart of Coldharbor's baffling, and maybe even sinister, superstition.

It's a journey that takes him to Greenwater Lake... a place where, it is said, those who dare to go, never return...

Book 9 in the series Yarmian Eventyde.
