is failing and the effects are falling on its people. Hungry and
deeply impoverished, the living standards for the citizens is
falling daily. They protest, calling on their Governor for help.
Suddenly, the Governor's soldiers launch an attack. People are
murdered in the forecourt of the palace. Was this Governor
Alexandrovitch's plan or the result of a tragic miscommunication?
The answer seems clear to the Russian people, with whispers of
revolution in the streets.

When the leader of the Soviet Union, Joseph Stalin, has a stroke -

darkness, uncertainty and near civil war. The struggle for supreme
power will determine the fate of the nation and of the world. And
it all really happened.

Morton Chapel's daughter Megan has come out of catatonia at last,
but she didn't come back to life alone. Seth, her demonic alter
ego, is with her, and the two of them have already wreaked bloody
havoc. The hunt is now on between Chapel, who's convinced killing
his daughter is the only solution, his team bent on preventing him
from doing so, and Megan's grandfather, an insane, megalomaniac
industrialist who believes he owes Seth his fortune...
Will Cuba be free, or will it become part of the United States? As
the election draws near, Cuba becomes a powder keg. The exactions
of El Santero continue, terrifying the liberators-turned-occupiers
and enflaming the spirit of the freedom-starved Cubans. In
response, American authorities don't hesitate to use extreme
violence to ensure that their candidate will win and become not the
president of the Republic of Cuba, but the first governor of the
46th state. For the SPOOKS, torn between duty and convictions, the
danger is real, and choices will have to be made...

When the leader of the Soviet Union, Joseph Stalin, has a stroke -
the political gears begin to turn, plunging the super-state into

After the SPOOKS' difficult mission in Cuba, Morton Chapel has
accepted Kathryn Lennox's help in attempting to treat his daughter,
Megan. The girl has been catatonic since she witnessed her father
shoot her demented mother Madeleine. But Chapel speaks of
possession rather than insanity; an hypothesis the rational Kathryn
finds it difficult to accept. And Madeleine's father, a mining
industry mogul, intends to exact his revenge from the SPOOKS
leader.

AM LEGION"

What seemed like a risk-free gig that should have got him some easy
cash turns into a fast-track to Hell for Tyler Cross. A hell called
"Angola," the biggest high-security prison in the United States,
surrounded by swamps and crushed by the sweltering Louisiana
sunshine. And then just to put the cherry on the cake, the Scarfo
clan has put a price on his head, and there are a whole load of
Sicilians among Tyler's fellow inmates. If Tyler ever manages to
get out of this penitentiary hell, it sure won't be for good
conduct.

AM LEGION "

of Dracula, locked in eternal battle

Tyler. Follow his embroilment with drugs, women and gangsters in a
violent adventure that he may not survive.
Cuba, 1902. Freed from its Spanish masters by US forces four years
ago, the island is still occupied by its erstwhile liberators, some
of whom aren't all that eager to leave. American businessmen and
politicians would like to see Cuba become a full state, while the
Cuban people dream only of freedom. When people begin dying...and
then come back to life, the SPOOKS are sent to investigate the
possible involvement of a Cuban priest and rebel leader - a
santero.
To save America from those who would steal it, the Spooks will have
to battle an evil from the dawn of civilisation. Important
personalities have been dying or going crazy. Investigator Morton
Chapel and his men discover that they are on the trail of an
ancient evil, something dating back to ancient Babylon and brought
back to life by a British occultist. As the dark magician leaves a
trail of corruption throughout the country's ruling elite, the
Spooks realise that the threat is directed at the highest level of
government and only they can stop it.
1895. Members of the East Coast elite have died under mysterious
circumstances. To investigate this delicate problem, Richard
Clayton - against the wishes of the President - calls upon a man
named Morton Chapel for his unorthodox methods and peculiar
associates. As they begin to uncover strange, vanishing marks on
people's bodies, unexplained changes in behaviour and hints of
widespread corruption, the team reforms around the name Ulysses S.
Grant himself gave it years earlier: his SPecialists in the Odd and
the OCcult - his SPOOKS.
