"The things I
draw: They tend to die."
There are things the people of Winter,
Wisconsin, would rather forget. The year the Nazis came to town, for
one. That fire, for another. But what they'd really like to forget is
Christian Cage.
Seventeen-year-old Christian's parents
disappeared when he was a little boy. Ever since, he's drawn
obsessively: his mother's face...her eyes...and what he calls "the
sideways place," where he says his parents are trapped. Christian
figures if he can just see through his mother's eyes, maybe he can get
there somehow and save them.
But Christian also draws other
things. Ugly things. Evil things. Dark things. Things like other
people's fears and nightmares. Their pasts. Their destiny.
There's
one more thing the people of Winter would like to forget: murder.
But Winter
won't be able to forget the truth, no matter how hard it tries. Not as
long as Christian draws the dark...
