For Kesira bears with her a magical child, a babe who never cries but whose eyes shine with a mysterious light. Against mercenaries armed with axe and spear, against demons bent on Kesira's destruction, the child acts as a talisman against the forces of night. what is the small one's special destiny? Will he be Kesira's salvation....or a demon spawn who will unleash untold horror? (Taken from the back of the book)
