The third and final book in a gripping Gothic YA trilogy, featuring
monsters from classic literary tales, secret societies and the fight
between good and evil.
Having tracked the monstrous Godwin to the Arctic and barely escaped
with their lives, Edgar Brim and his friends return to London. Edgar
continues his work at London Hospital, now under the tutelage of the
Chairman, the affluent and charming Sir Andrew Lawrence. Edgar's night
terrors begin increasing in intensity, and soon the group becomes aware
of a new threat: they are being stalked by a new creature, an invisible
assailant they are convinced is the Devil himself. In the hope of curing
his affliction and combating his fears, Edgar confides in Dr. Berenice,
a renowned yet enigmatic alienist who may somehow be involved in the
mystery. Yet when the group suffers a fatal attack and a long-dead ally
makes an appearance, Edgar begins questioning his own sanity. Can he and
his friends truly defeat the most powerful villain imaginable if they
can't even trust their own minds?
