  From the Back Cover The only Christmas cheer this year will be from those who live to see the dawn . . . For hardened NYPD homicide detectives Ilsa Dunbar and Andy Alvilda, Christmas represents a holiday of horrors. Every December for the past decade, a cult of serial killers the press calls the Christmas Cannibals has chewed the Big Apple to its core. Creeping in under cover of darkness, they bypass the finest security systems and slaughter entire families, leaving wreckage and half-eaten corpses in their wake. But as Dunbar and Alvilda’s investigation leads them from one horrifying crime scene to another, they begin to realize there is something dark and deadly lurking in the shadows. It is an ancient evil whose roots are wrapped around the most iconic Christmas figure of all. And for those who meet its fiery gaze, the legend of Santa Claus will never be the same. If you're a fan of must-read horror fiction books like Brom's Krampus: the Yule Lord, gripping mythological thr...
