Geralt faces a reckoning when a witch hunt casts doubt on his beliefs.

Flames rise as a witch is burned at the stake. As Geralt looks on, he hears a voice beckon to him. Nightmares plague his sight as he sees the burned witch appear before him--bringing an ominous warning . . . but is there more to her message than the ravings of a murderous hag? A wealthy landlord enlists Geralt's help in the search for his missing daughter, believed to have been taken by witches. But this is far from a rescue mission, something is haunting Geralt, something from within, something he can't escape . . .

Created in close collaboration with the studio behind the games! Collects issues #1-#4 of the Dark Horse Comics series The Witcher: Witch's Lament.
