Revenants

Sorcerer-Cleric Alcuin isn’t wanted in Scar Glen, and he doesn’t much want to be there either. For after dark, in this place so far from civilization, the doors are barred and the fires banked up, and death stalks the streets.
The town is the haunt of revenants, cursed souls brought back from the dead to terrorize the living. Alcuin has been sent to exorcise them and return them to their graves, a task he is understandably keen to perform as quickly as possible.
Yet he soon finds that there is more to fear than the undead, and that there are other powerful forces that do not want him to uncover the truth. The only person who can help him is Molly, but she is a young woman who despises everything he stands for.
Then Molly, too, disappears, and Alcuin must solve the mystery of Scar Glen from the clues left behind by the departed if he wants to save Molly, and himself.

Revenants is a novella (short novel) of approximately 66 pages.
