A spectral figure slips silently through the centuries, unknown to all but his victims. With cold as his weapon, and darkness his steed, he leaves no trace of his passing, save for the bodies cast in his wake. His name: Domenic Veil.It is in the lonely nights that he comes, bringing with him the icy embrace of death, hunting across the centuries those who have taken life, yet have never been called to account.In a small mining town during the Western expansion, an excommunicated priest delivers his final sermon. In Renaissance Italy, a brilliant artist puts brush to canvas for the last time. In Whitechapel, a young man stalks the streets to put an end to the pain of his past.Through the eyes of his prey, a story unfolds – one of penance across the ages, of empathy and compassion gained amidst the very worst humanity has to offer. Each account provides a window into the man beneath the monster. At its core, Veil is the story of an immortal being, once human, who wearily seeks to pass on the divine burden thrust upon him and finally rest.
