In a Massachusetts town, an evil wizard is about to come back from
the dead and a young hero must fight to stop him . . . In the days
of the Salem witch trials, the sleepy hamlet of Duston Heights had
just one practitioner of the dark arts: the notorious necromancer
Esdrias Blackleach. As the fever for witch hunting reached its
terrible peak, Blackleach was accused of using powerful black magic
against his fellow townsfolk. But just before he could be brought
to trial, he dropped dead, escaping justice forever. Or so it
seemed . . . Fast forward to the 1950s, the inquisitive young
sleuth Johnny Dixon and his mentor Professor Childermass are
getting ready to donate a box of Blackleach artifacts to the local
museum when a descendant of the sorcerer shows up and attempts to
steal his ancestor's wooden hand. He has a fiendish plan to raise
the old necromancer from the dead, and only Johnny and the
professor can stop him and make the town safe from black magic
forever. The Johnny Dixon stories, from the award-winning author of
The House with a Clock in Its Walls, have been acclaimed for their
"believable and likable characters" (The New York Times) and
"spine-tingling" supernatural adventure (Publishers Weekly).
