SEKT - Verbum - Paperback

by Pitzel (Author)

Only weeks after their frightening encounter with Sigvard Krag, the members of SEKT are melancholy but resolved in the society's mission to protect the unknowing against the forces of darkness. Evelyn's startling revelations from the notes left by Gilman in the Witch House set her on a dangerous path. Meanwhile, the rest of the group recovers an artifact that Professor Berlioux buried in the Old Arkhma Cemetery that may prove to be their undoing. Mr. Edgerton has a new business venture to embark on while the others continue to investigate what Nyarlathotep's plan is for James. When Thomas takes James and Daniel to help with the delivery of a mysterious crate to a wealthy Senatorial candidate in Portland, Maine, they discover more than a simple politician.

The sea rages as storms batter the eastern seaboard, providing a sinister backdrop for the delivery of the suspiciously misplaced crate. James finds a moment of respite from the Dark Man's watchful presence after leaving Arkham, but at what cost? Dr. Daniel Norris continues to be a mysterious figure in the lives of the new SEKT recruits as they infiltrate the secrets of the McGinley family. For centuries, the McGinleys have kept their secrets closely guarded. Now the ambitious Charles McGinley seeks to unleash his family's legacy that lies waiting beneath the waves.
