He has traded his scalpel for rye and his hope for cold, bitter cynicism. But on the stroke of midnight, a violent summons pulls him back into the world he abandoned.\u003cbr\u003eElias is met by the Belsnickel, a towering, antlered judge draped in heavy iron chains, who demands he undertake a perilous journey into the frozen heart of the mountain. A child is dying of the Rime-Sickness, and only Elias-the man who failed to save his own-can cross the corrupted landscape before the Christmas dawn.\u003cbr\u003eArmed only with an ice-axe and a sapphire lamp that burns on his fading memory of medical commitment, Elias must traverse the treacherous Hemlock Dark.
