In this issue of RED THORN, an investigator, Amaka, has been busy collecting facts of all the strange occurrences happening in Glasgow over the past 9 months—the discovery of an old sea god living in the River, drawings that are coming to life, and mysterious bridges that have popped up in the North. Amaka believes these all have to do with an event that occurred 25 years before with the disappearance of her friend Lauren.

Meanwhile Isla has been locked up in the Lock Asylum with no recollection of how she got there. A timid prisoner attempts to help her but fears those that guard them. Will Isla find who is responsible for her capture? And how will she escape? Find out more by reading RED THORN #9 from writer David Baillie and artists Meghan Hetrick (art), Nick Filardi (colors) and Todd Klein (letters).
