An entire town lies dead. Its people dried into salt-white husks. Something primeval has been released. When dragoneer Lori Drake arrives in Hakitaw, the dead begin to walk. Drawn to the salt mine beneath the town, they answer a call that should not exist. As sorcerers, shamans, and hunters clash over how to stop it, Lori is forced into a fight she cannot win against an entity immune to magic, bullets, and reality. What wakes beneath Hakitaw…will not be contained.
