They are vessels for an ancient evil, trapped long ago by another couple just like them. Now, this evil is awake, and its first move is to claim their minds, their souls, and then the world. ​The nightmare is loose, and the second sealing begins now.

Kat, the young waitress, works the graveyard shift, pouring cup after cup for strangers who never quite belong. But the Midnight Café is not an ordinary stop on the road.

Some are judgments. Kat listens, half-waitress, half-confessor, never sure if she's serving the living or the dead. And as the nights stretch on, she begins to wonder if the diner itself is a crossroads between this world and the next.
