About this audiobook
Join an occult detective who uses a unique blend of ancient ritual and modern technology to investigate the supernatural. Armed with his "electric pentacle" and camera, the protagonist faces ab-human entities that threaten to breach the barrier between worlds. The stories combine the atmosphere of the gothic ghost story with a proto-scientific approach to the paranormal, creating a distinct subgenre of weird fiction. It is a suspenseful collection that treats the haunting of the dark as a problem to be solved with courage and voltage.
