Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. In the seventies, they wanted to change the world - a group of young people who talked of blowing up trains, or wrecking the system. Then Lori Cosgrove died and their own world changed for ever. Now, fifteen years later, someone is summoning them to lay Lori's ghost. The letter that draws Nick Howard to the remote Cornish fishing village of Longrock provokes in him a mixture of curiosity, fear and guilt. Waiting for him is The Great Zeno - who styles himself 'Magus, Illusionist, Escapologist'. Their meeting starts with magic, comes to horror and ends in death. Nick knows little of Zeno, except that he's determined to protect his future by destroying the past. But not all Zeno's victims are as easy to kill. Sam Pescoe had been one of the group, one of those who had known Lori. He too gets a letter. He too meets Zeno - and in that moment the battle betweeen them begins. And beyond that conflict, watching it with cruel detachment, scheming, manipulating, enjoying, is Wallace Ellwood, a man whose delight in pain seems limitless. In this, his most chilling book to date, the author lays deception on deception, illusion on illusion. He evokes an extraordinary world of magic, murder, dark secrets and darker dreams. And, in Wallace Ellwood, he has created one of the most evil figures in all suspense fiction. Very slight shelf wear to top edge and corners of D/J. Seller Inventory # 017727
