The Diabolicus. Symbol of dark power. The curse of madness. The mark of a once powerful ancient cult of mystics known as the Samanduran, discovered seared upon the flesh of a dead man.
Inspector Devon Horne enlists the aid of master mentalist Everard Rook, one of the last few remaining practitioners of the arcane arts in the aftermath of the Great Waning of Magic. But when the Samanduran comes close to achieving its zealous pursuits, only altering the very course of cosmic forces can stop them.
