Elisha was once a lowly barber-surgeon from the poorest
streets of 14th-century London; now, he may be the most
powerful magus alive. He faces the necromancers, a shadowy
cult of magi who draw their power from fear and murder—and
who have just unleashed the greatest plague the world has
ever known upon a continent already destabilized by wars,
assassinations, and religious conflict. Empires and armies are helpless with no clear enemy to
fight. The Church loses its hold upon the faithful as
prayers go unanswered. Europe has become a bottomless well
of terror and death, from which the necromancers drink
deep as the citizens sink into despair. Elisha knows that
if there is to be any chance of survival, he must root out
the truth of the pestilence at its unexpected source: the
great medical school at Salerno. There, Elisha might
uncover the knowledge to heal his world. But as he does, his former mentor, the beautiful witch
Brigit, lays her own plans. For there may be one thing
upon the face of the planet deadlier than the plague: the
unfiltered power of Death within Elisha himself.
