Summary

Victorian charlatans imperil reality when they unwittingly summon a horror from the void

LONDON, 1891. Elizabeth Whittle and William Grant enjoy scalping London’s bourgeoisie, taking on the personas of grand spiritist Cerulia Trent and her agent to connect the living and the dead. When a detective arrives, sniffing out fraud with a scientifically minded spiritualist society, the duo decides to take one last job before escaping to the continent.

However, their final séance ends horrifically … and soon Lizzie isn’t Lizzie anymore. William, desperate to banish whatever monster they summoned, is soon embroiled in an electrifying eldritch mystery where he makes a deal with the devil to save his friend and stop an even greater evil from transforming the known world.

Typical Jonathan L Howard... Fantastic

My own thoughts are, the narrator started ok but improved inestimably as the book progressed (Aussie accents notwithstanding as a fair representation of Mancunian ones can be applauded). Overall, very well delivered.
The story itself, I found this to have great characters, plenty going on without being perplexing, very good rhythm. I'll have to cross my fingers and hope this is a series which continues, well done JLH 👏

Another hit for Jonathan L. Howard

I am a big fan of the Cabal series, so I was excited to read this new Lovecraftian themed book. I can only say it did not disappoint! The narration is masterfully done and fits the dark undertones of the book.
