Pilgrim: The Winter Queen

Every year, on the winter solstice, the small town of Melcombe observes an annual custom whose roots and meaning are lost in time — a torch-lit procession to the ancient tomb of Cairndale Knapp that puts the old sun to bed and greets the new. When an ancient yew tree is felled, the old custom springs malevolently to life: the Winter Queen is released from her prison, bent on revenge, and it falls to Pilgrim to restore the balance.
