FIRST IN A NEW SERIES
Bram Stoker, business manager for London's Lyceum Theatre, always
expects the supernatural to be lurking around the corner. But
investigating the murder of a cast member might be enough to make
even him lose his head...
"1881." When the star and owner of the Lyceum, Mr. Henry Irving, is
poisoned on "Hamlet"'s opening night, it's up to stage manager
Harry Rivers to make sure the show goes on. Fortunately for Harry,
Mr. Irving is able to pull through and walk the boards as planned.
But when his understudy is killed the very next day, Harry's boss,
Bram Stoker, becomes convinced that foul play is afoot.
Mr. Irving has a list of enemies longer than a Shakespearean
soliloquy, any of whom would have been happy for the curtain never
to rise. It soon becomes clear that nefarious, possibly magical,
methods are being employed to shut the play down. With more cast
and crew members falling victim to the increasingly dangerous
accidents on set, it's up to Harry and Stoker to figure out which
of Irving's critics has a voodoo vendetta...
Fierce hurricanes, ruinous tornadoes, and flooding rains are
sweeping the United States, costing thousands of lives and billions
of dollars. As it becomes clear that these eerily violent and
frequent storms are unnatural, the Committee (a cover group of
psychics formed by the U. S. government to neutralize malignant
paranormal forces) joins minds to determine how and why these
devastating magical catastrophes are plaguing America -- and who's
behind them.
Meet Patrizio Ganganelli, a crazed Roman Cardinal obsessed with
avenging his mother's rape by American soldiers during World War
II. As the Cardinal plunders the Vatican's secret magic library to
evoke demonic forces against the United States, the Committee joins
forces with a Priestess of Witchcraft to counter the Cardinal's
attack. But even the power of the Great Goddess may not be enough
to defeat the ancient evil that's been set loose. As the Committee
gathers every ounce of their psychic talent and courage, they
realize that this is the most important fight of their lives -- and
that the outcome will influence the fate of the world itself.
"Cardinal's Sin is a real page turner of a read -- Midwest Book
Review"
In The Committee Against Evil 2 Book Series, world-famous,
best-selling author Raymond Buckland brings his creative writing
talents to the world of fiction for two intriguing tales.
In Book I: The Committee: The Cold War may be over for most of us,
but in the world of The Committee, the Cold War is in full swing
and the weapons of power include astral projection and
psychokinesis. The battleground is on the earth, in space, and on
the astral plane. The prize for this war is the very future of the
United States.
The story begins with just a slight irregularity. Stopping a
satellite launch is not unusual-but when two routine communications
satellite launches are aborted for no reason, the government does
something very secretive; it forms the Committee, a team of psychic
experts to find out what caused the missions to be halted. As this
group of talented people from around the nation begins what would
become the supernatural adventure of a lifetime, they discover a
plan by incredibly powerful psychics, under the control of an evil
dictator, to control the U.S.
Unfortunately, they have only days to stop the coup. Can this
group of strangers, drawn together for a common cause, defeat the
most powerful enemy ever? There is but one chance, and that is to
defeat them at their own game-but is there enough time?
Alec Chambers is in a quandry - his bookstore had been broken into,
his storekeeper killed, and everything points to the man behind the
mayhem being one of his best customers, Mr. Mathers.
But when a very special journal is stolen from his own home, he
finds himself in a race across Europe with Mathers and his Golden
Dawn compatriots. But how are they to find the answer to the
strange cypher code that is their only clue, and what is the
identity of the mysterious red-haired woman?
Like the very finest Dan Brown story, only set in the age of Queen
Victoria, our intrepid hero finds himself pitting his wit and
wisdom against Mathers, Crowley and an assortment of unsavory
characters, in a race against the clock to thwart a devilish plan
hatched by none other than the infamous Illuminati!
