But those places where black and white become gray innocent mistakes begin to happen.Attempts are made by the White Order to hide her. And when all seems to be within the protection of the Magical Order it becomes apparent there is an informant within the deepest and most sacred chambers of their ritualistic practices.SOMEWHERE...,In certain remote regions, in mountain villages tucked away from the world, myth and superstition still hold sway. Old beliefs haven't died. Dark forces are accepted with fear and reverence. In such a place, far from home and hearth, Edmund and Anna Blackstone lose their only child to a nameless fever.SOMETIMES...Fate is cruel, and things go dreadfully wrong. Death shuts one door but opens another. An ancient flaw, in the fabric of time itself, provides a foothold and then a gateway for a demon. For the BlackstoneS, grief gives way to disbelief and tragedy bows to horror as their dead son rises again, his soul devoured and his body possessed.SOMEHOW...Before it can escape and its bloodlust claim more lives, Edmund and Anna Blackstone must end the hideously charmed life of what was once their little boy, cursed at birth and damned in death....THE MOONCHILD
