American Charles Hayden came to England to forget the past. Failed
father, failed husband, and failed scholar, Charles hopes to put
his life back together with a biography of Caedmon Hollow, the
long-dead author of a legendary Victorian children's book, In the
Night Wood. But soon after settling into Hollow's remote Yorkshire
home, Charles learns that the past isn't dead. In the neighbouring
village, Charles meets a woman he might have loved, a child who
could have been his own lost daughter, and the ghost of a self he
thought he'd put behind him. And in the primeval forest surrounding
Caedmon Hollow's ancestral home, an ancient power is stirring. The
horned figure of a long-forgotten king haunts Charles Hayden's
dreams. And every morning the fringe of darkling trees presses
closer. Soon enough, Charles will venture into the night wood. Soon
enough, he'll learn that the darkness under the trees is but a
shadow of the darkness that waits inside us all.
