Y no hay antídoto.

Bode findet einen weiteren magischen Schlüssel, der Menschen in Tiere verwandeln kann. Doch nicht nur der Locke-Sprössling, sondern auch Zack macht sich die Zauberkraft des Tier-Schlüssels zu Nutze: Er nimmt die Gestalt eines Wolfs an, um Kinsey und Tyler unerkannt zu töten. Zum Glück ist Bode, der sich in einen Spatz verwandelt hat, zur Stelle und greift den Dämon mit einem Spatzenschwarm an. Die Locke-Geschwister werden immer misstrauischer: Wer steckt hinter den sich häufenden Angriffen?

En estos magistrales relatos (dos coescritos con Stephen King), Joe Hill disecciona conflictos muy humanos en escenarios fantasmagóricos. Una puerta que da a un mundo prodigioso y lleno de maravillas se torna sangrienta cuando la atraviesa un grupo de cazadores. Dos hermanos se adentran en un laberíntico campo de hierba alta para ayudar a un niño que pide auxilio entre la maleza. Un camionero se ve envuelto en una sofocante persecución por el desierto de Nevada. Cuatro adolescentes suben a un antiguo carrusel donde cada vuelta tiene consecuencias espeluznantes.

Noch ahnt keiner der Lockes, wen Bode da aus dem Brunnen befreit hat: Die "Brunnenfrau" ist ein Dämon, dessen Geist dort gefangen gehalten war. Dieser Dämon war es auch, der Sam Lesser damit beauftragt hat, die magischen Schlüssel ausfindig zu machen... Alsbald nimmt die "Brunnenfrau" mithilfe des Geschlechter-Schlüssels die Gestalt eines jungen Mannes an und wird zu Zack. Um an weitere Schlüssel zu kommen, erschleicht sich Zack das Vertrauen von Tyler und Kinsey, den beiden älteren Locke-Geschwistern. Doch ein alter Lehrer an der Schule droht, die Pläne des Dämons zu durchkreuzen: Professor Ridgeway erkennt in Zack seinen ehemaligen Schüler Lukas, der vor Jahren spurlos verschwunden ist.
