Every street has its stories - those of the living and those of the dead.
When James hears of the Black Hound, he finds his own story crosses the boundaries of both.
After the sudden death of his twin sister, 14-year-old James Reynolds becomes obsessed with her tale of a black hound, a creature believed to be a portent of death. Enlisting the aid of his elderly neighbor, who the local children call 'The Witch', he delves into the centuries of village history, folklore, and ghosts, until he uncovers a deeper secret beyond his darkest nightmares, beyond the sight of most, and beyond the mortal veil.
