To crack a cold case, deadbeat P.I. Mike Hammer squares up against a maelstrom of supernatural forces whilst trying to save his partner’s cursed soul from damnation, and claw back what remains of his own sanity.
With the supernatural connection between the Wendigo and Necromancer broken, Kaskey, the local lawyer, is returned to her normal state and taken to a nearby hunting lodge by one of the golem for safe keeping.
Meanwhile, Hammer and Tongues bash out some old conflicts whilst attempting to make sense of the deepening case in Nanapush Cove.
The Wendigo soon returns to recapture Kaskey and then rampages through town devouring several locals in its wake.
Hammer pays a brief visit to a local church and wishes he'd never made a pledge to find the killer of his best buddy, Tongues.
