It is A.D. 791, and Hring, serving as a spy in the guise of a rat catcher, is caught up in a bizarre mystery within the confines of an abbey: a series of gruesome deaths that appear to be committed by a revenant. The restless spirit is only targeting the members of the abbey, draining blood from his victims. Hring must confront his own fears, and his compromised beliefs in a world of spirits, in order to stop the ghostly monk from killing again.

Charles Barnitz is an accomplished author who has published stories in The Denver Quarterly and The Madison Review, and had a chapter of his novel, Mummers, anthologized in the Signet Classic Book of Contemporary American Short Stories. Many of his stories follow Hring, an eighth-century former monk, now serving as an assistant advocate in the courts of the Mercian province of Elmet. He is out to see balance restored, even if it takes a little creative interpretation of the law to bring the guilty men to the rope.
