Two young necromancers-in-training accept the invitation of Victon Mordenheim to aid him in his research. Mordenheim, man of science, wishes to revive his dead wife and funnel her essence into a new living receptacle. The newcomers' consternation is brought to a head when one of them, a lovely young woman, is kidnapped by Adam, Mordenheim's creation, who swears to kill her should they pursue their plans. From then on it's a race across the ice, battling lycanthropes, vengeful Vistani, and the dark forces themselves, as the young necromancers try to escape the dark domains.
