A strange mining town in the shadow of a mountain. A hidden enemy, dangerous and… hungry.

On their hunt for the missing dragon, Thaddeus and Teofil find themselves stuck in Iron Gulch, a mysterious town at the foot of Wraith Mountain. With no cash, their group's only choice is to exchange chores for lodging at a local B & B.

As they explore the town, Thaddeus and Teofil soon discover some of Iron Gulch's more eccentric residents might actually be dangerous. Snooping one night in the mines, they uncover the new and deadly enemy and a bloody battle breaks out in Iron Gulch. Thaddeus' magic is new and untested, but he'll have to master his powers quickly to save the people of the town and the family he loves.

When the dragon suddenly returns, the tide of battle takes a drastic and fatal turn that changes their lives forever.
