About this audiobook
A stormy night in London. Two friends, a card table, a heap of gold, and one moment of blind rage that can never be undone.
Haunted by guilt and terrified of the consequences, Adrian Lancaster flees into the tempest and stumbles upon the enigmatic Dr. Michael Roversmire, a man steeped in occult knowledge who offers a way out so strange that no sane man would dare consider it. But as the epigraph warns, it is ill to tamper with the unseen world, and those who do rarely escape unscathed.
From Fergus Hume, the bestselling author of The Mystery of a Hansom Cab, comes this late-Victorian "psychological phantasy" of crime, conscience, love and the supernatural. What does it truly cost to escape yourself?
Perfect for lovers of Victorian mysteries, gothic atmosphere and tales where the human mind is the most unsettling mystery of all.
