Not every nightmare comes from imagination, and not every premonition from a hunch.

 

All Kelly wants is a fresh beginning, but when she meets an elderly woman who claims to be her great, great, great grandmother and finds an ancient evil that wants her young baby’s blood, she reaches for archaic tradition.

 

But something goes very wrong when a frightening troll appears at the window of her second-story apartment, and she learns her premonition is spot on: something is after her daughters.

But something goes very wrong when a frightening troll appears at the window of her second-story apartment, and she learns her premonition is spot on: something is after her daughters.

Gudrun claims to be a relative from the 1400s who comes to stop the woman in green from Cromarty from draining her daughters’ blood. Kelly disbelieves the elderly woman and discounts her premonition until, in the dead of night, she finds an ancient evil hovering over her oldest daughter’s bed ready to open a vein, and her toddler is watching the predator. The events are shocking enough. Now there’s a seductive helper with Gudrun. Who is the bigger threat? The evil after their lives or the man stirring her heart, living under her nose.​
