Matt Cahill is working security at a traveling carnival, seeking a respite in the lonely battle against the supernatural entity known as Mr. Dark. But that’s not going to happen. He can sense something isn’t right, almost as clearly as he can see the evil in people as rotting flesh. Soon a series of violent, horrifying events rock the carnival…and, most disturbing of all, a fake fortune teller’s dark prophecies start coming true. So when she foresees imminent doom, Matt knows it can only mean one thing: Mr. Dark is here, and it’s not for the cotton candy. If Matt can’t stop him, Mr. Dark will destroy every last soul in this godforsaken carnival—and salt the earth with blood.
