Bad Awakening:

The second Henry woke he knew something was wrong. Not only was the air filled with sorrow and misery, he could also smell fear and the scent of unshed tears.

Why? What had happened while he slept? And why was Michael not beside him? He shouldn’t be able to rise earlier than his maker!

Irritated and concerned, his gaze fell on the image at the door.

Holding each other desperately close, Mike and Vicki stood there frozen, as if one wrong movement could bring upon the end of the world.

Just as he was about to demand answers, Vicki moved.
