WHY WOULD A DEMON WANT A CHILD? When his six-year-old son vanishes, Miles Gale is suspected of having committed an unthinkable crime. He alone knows that the truth is even more unthinkable: his son has been taken by a creature out of time, a creature out of nightmare. The boy's mother has returned to claim him ... and Miles will have to go through hell to get him back. PRAISE FOR T.M.

KIRKUS REVIEWS "Hallucinatory ... eerie." PUBLISHERS WEEKLY "Wright can keep us shivering on the edge."
