On Bonfire Night, an old man runs into the flames to recover an effigy of Guy Fawkes.

Why would he risk his life to defend the reputation of one of history's most notorious figures?

It's time to forget everything you think you know about Guy Fawkes!

Born during the clangour of bells in York, Guy Fawkes has a gift: he can see and hear the restless dead.

In the late 1500s, the city is under the influence of evil. Both the Archbishop of York and the head of the Council of the North draw upon the power of demons to hold the city under their control.

When visited by the ghost of a rebellious lord, Guy is brought into the world of demon hunters, a secret society dedicated to defeating evil. Can young Guy Fawkes save York from the demon scourge, or will the darkness consume the city, his friends, and his family and set him on the path to self-destruction?

Guy Fawkes: Demon Hunter combines the supernatural with history in a coming-of-age tale of loss, friendship, and revenge.
