Mystery
A respected surgeon and rare book collector is brutally
murdered in his elegant Manhattan home, just hours after
showing a book dealer the fifteenth-century manual of black
magic--a grimoire--he'd received from a grateful patient.
Now the healer's blood is everywhere--and only the priceless
grimoire is missing.
The horrific death of her beloved father has shattered
Beatrice O'Connell's quiet, sane, and orderly world. Only by
tracking down the vanished malevolent tome--with its dark
spell and salacious illustrations--can she hope to put
things right. But the search is leading Beatrice, her
ex-husband, and a mysterious occultist into an expanding
labyrinth of powerful evils, a tangled web that reaches as
far as the Vatican itself. What coveted secrets are hidden
in the missing volume that threaten to turn Beatrice into
precisely what her unseen and unrelenting enemies are
determined to destroy?
