Sequel to The Talisman.

Jack Sawyer is a retired Los Angeles homicide detective living in the small hamlet of Tamarak, Wisconsin. He has no recollection of the events twenty yearas ago that led him to a parallel universe called the Terirtoties to save his mother from certain death. When a series of gruesome murders occurs in western Wisconsin, Jack's buddy, the local chief of police, begs Jack to help the inexperienced force find the killer. As cryptic messages in Jack's waking dreams become increaslingy difficult to ignore, he is drawn back to the Territories and to his own hidden past, where he must find the soul-strength to enter a terrifying house at the end of a desreted tract of forest - and to encounter the obscene and ferocious evils sheltered within it.
