London, 1886.
John H. Wilford, a weary journalist chasing his first great story, stumbles upon a mysterious stone - an artifact whispered to be as old as prophecy itself, carried through blood, faith, and shadowed history. From the moment it touches his hands, his dreams darken. Whispers in the fog call his name. Something ancient has awakened.
Drawn deep into Epping Forest and into the path of bloodshed, secret cults, and violent rituals, John must confront forces far older and far darker than man. But the stone is only the beginning.
