In 1572, the witch Malkin is imprisoned underground by Gregory, the last of the Falcons, a knightly order which defended mankind against supernatural threats. Years later, Gregory works as a “spook” – a roving witch hunter.
Malkin escapes, killing Gregory’s apprentice William, and fleeing to her mountain fortress. She restores the fortress and the beauty of her disfigured, loyal sister, Bony Lizzie. The coming centennial blood moon will make Malkin unstoppable.
Gregory seeks out Tom Ward – the seventh son of a seventh son – as his new apprentice. Tom’s Mam gives him her necklace as a talisman, urging him to wear it always. In a town, Tom sees a girl, Alice, about to be burned as a witch. Recognizing her from his clairvoyant visions, Tom frees her.
Tom meets Gregory’s assistant, Tusk. With only a week before the blood moon is full, reviving Malkin’s full power, Tom must rush through his training while the trio head to Malkin’s fortress. En route, Gregory is summoned to a walled city by an inquisitor whose forces have subdued one of Malkin’s followers, a werebear named Urag.
