The last members of the secret society known as the Oversight still patrol the border between the natural and supernatural, holding a candle to the darkness.

And the catastrophic danger that will follow the duo home, if they ever manage to return.

The dark waters rise. The candle is guttering. But the light still remains. For now . . .
