The Reckoning
Hell shall inherit the earth…
Eighteen gruelling months have passed since Meridia was catapulted into the past and the town of Shawbrook is nothing more than a concrete graveyard with most of its population callously wiped from the face of the earth. Helpless victims of a global genocide cunningly orchestrated by the nefarious cult and their enigmatic leader, the Grand Master.
Now weavers rule the roost. Mutant arachnids, hunting in packs and feasting on stray survivors seeking refuge amongst the charred ruins of civilization.
Whilst Zach longs for Meridia to return and lead a small resistance group to salvation, Kane and Peter scour the wreckage of their hometown for The Eye of Corvus: an ancient artifact capable of turning the tide.
Boxed in by fate, Izzy and JJ grapple with their past and rejoin the fight in a last-ditch mission that will decide everything. Can five childhood friends defeat the evil of Crooked House, or will they fall at the final hurdle? With Grady still at large and vicious cannibals lurking around every corner, the odds are stacked against them.
As chaos unfolds and trust erodes, will they uncover the enemy within before it's too late, or pay the ultimate price?
