"I don't think I like the sound of you," Danny said. "Consider me a man with a mission. And that mission doesn't include you." He paused. "What I'm saying is," and he turned suddenly and looked at him, "don't start believing you saw anything. Don't start believing what you want to believe. Know the story of the apostle Peter?" He didn't wait for Andy to acknowledge that he did. "Well that man was me. I'll deny you so fast they'll have you nailed up and sun-dried before the last crow is out. You want to find out how sexy you are try your brother. Try Stephen, Rab, anybody. But not me. You think you're smart. You think because you know something about me you know it all. You think I'm a safe bet. I'd agree. If we were anywhere else I'd agree. But not here, not with my fucking meal ticket. It's a game to you. Not for him. Not for either of them. And not for me. And let me tell you one more thing. One very serious, important thing. You get in my way and I'll step on you. I'll step on you so hard you'll hear your own back breaking."
Six years have passed and Danny has unexpectedly returned, like a revenant revisiting the scene of the crime, a ghost haunting his own grave.
He has finally fulfilled Ian's prophecy and become the lost boy of his brother's old and favoured fairy tale, the Snow Queen. He is a dead man walking, the ice splinter now wedged so deeply inside his heart no-one can reach him.
He repeatedly warns people of his own heartlessness, only for them to ignore him, heedlessly disregarding his honesty, believing they will be the one to raise him from the dead, their own Personal Jesus.
Unfortunately, tortured Messiah or not, he consumes his new disciples with a numbing ferocity, sucking perversion and emotional sustenance from them like something long-dead desperately seeking heat, while they, blinded by the maimed beauty of his self-immolation at John's altar, are too slow to realise that touching his martyr's heart may well be beyond the capability of anyone living, and that something altogether more disturbing might be lurking behind his zealot's mission to embrace his darkling past and re-enter the lion's den of his old family home.
Yes, Danny has finally come home.
The question is... why?
