Azban, the trickster demon, has done it again. But this time, he's succeeded. He's lured a victim to the Wishing Well, where the soul of his master has been caged for a decade. The Mist shall finally be released, thanks to little Miss Phoebe Hughes.
And then he will strike again.

Jenarius Hughes has been haunted by the soul sucking demon too many times to count. This is the last chance he has to save his only child. He sets off on a dangerous journey from Washington State to Massachusetts, along with the son he's trying to save and a woman who's suffered the same wrath he has, towards the only answer to the question he's been asking ever since his first child was consumed by the demon:

How do you kill The Mist?

You Wished Her Well

“That thing had been a person?” Jenarius snapped in shock. 


“Hold on…” Angel said, but she was smiling. “The Mist’s real name is Thomas?” 


He glared at her as she tilted her head back and laughed. 


In the corner, Javier watched them with a smile. 


“Thomas,” she snorted, “oh, Lord. Now I’m just ashamed.” 


Jenarius groaned in annoyance and palmed his face. 


“Right,” she tried to kill her smile but then her mouth twitched uncontrollably. “So, we can kill Thomas.” 


Javier snickered, too, and Harvey had already joined in the giggling. Jenarius took a step closer to the wall and studied it. 


“How did it happen?” he asked. “How did he get possessed?” 


The laughter in the room died in an instant. 


He didn’t have to turn around to know how serious everything had just gotten. The air shifted. It was time for answers.
