Kathy Jenkins has had enough of life. Her long-term boyfriend is now tucked up in her best friend's bed, her offices closed down and her apartment sold off from underneath her. Her father, now in the final throws of cancer, lies in a hospice bed as the last reminder of a family long since lost or broken. Following her father's funeral, with the bite of Winter coming into the old neighbour where she has spent the last twenty-seven years of her life, she decides enough is enough.
Hume promises much. It is quiet, quaint, and peaceful. Surrounded by woodland, with nothing but nature and the quiet of your own mind. Settled into the new place, Kathy soon finds that old haunts don't always get left behind. The gradual reappearance of an old sleep paralysis demon, known only as The Gangly Man, sends Kathy into a dark and dangerous world where only the strongest will survive.
The Gangly Man is a demon, an entity of fear and hate. It lives to destroy, to crush and to maim. Death comes wherever The Gangly Man appears. And as the nights pass by, he comes closer...and closer.
