| book description |

Once a year on the eve of the winter solstice the village of Goldholm awakes for 24 hours. Conversations are resumed, customs observed - and the villagers, asleep since the late seventeen hundreds, continue with their lives entirely unaware that by sunset on the solstice they shall all be sleeping peacefully again. Amongst the sleeping villages there is the Maid of Goldholm , whose spell has kept her and the villagers locked in this cycle. It was Pilgrim, her old foe, who managed to persuade her to put herself and the villagers to sleep to stop her enslaving them. Three hundred years later she has been awoken and is aggrieved at being treated with contempt. She makes a demand: if Pilgrim will allow himself become her slave then the villagers of Goldholm will be allowed to continue sleeping undisturbed. If Pilgrim does not surrender then the villagers will be forced to awake from their slumber and face the trauma of a modern world for which they are hopelessly unprepared. Pilgrim must make his choice...and he must do so before the sunset on the solstice. Told over the two days of the winter solstice - Pilgrim must walk again between the worlds of magick and of men.
