Book Description Paperback. Condition: Good. 464 pages. cover wornJane Stanton Hitchcock's second novel is a chilling and unpredictable story in which the powers of darkne ss and pathology lurk just beneath the surface of modern life. He r first novel, Trick of the Eye, was nominated for both the Edgar Award and the Hammett Prize for best first mystery novel. Now Hi tchcock practices her narrative skills even more convincingly in this sinister thriller about a vulnerable young woman drawn deep into a web of evil who must unravel the coils of her own sexual i dentity and womanhood. Beatrice O'Connell's orderly life is shatt ered when her father, a gentle man preoccupied with rare-book col lecting, is viciously murdered. Discovered missing from his libra ry is a seemingly harmless fifteenth-century grimoire - a manual of black magic or, as some would believe, the work of the Devil. What is the secret of this apparently unprepossessing volume that powerful people are prepared to risk so much to possess? Does it contain a demonic spell? Or is the map for a hidden treasure bur ied within its timeworn pages? And so what begins with the casual acceptance of a book of black magic with obscene illustrations e nds with the discovery of a vast contemporary witch-hunt. With th e help of a chain-smoking occultist, a libidinous social worker i n Spanish Harlem, and a remorseful ex-husband, Beatrice struggles to piece together the puzzle.in Oklahoma, where the book first surfaced; in upstate New York, home of an enormously wealthy fou ndation with strong ties to the Church; in London, where the daug hter of a Nazi official sheds light on one corner of the dark Naz i past; in Italy, where a demented former Vatican official forces Beatrice to pay an uncompromisingly highprice for a vital piece of the puzzle. And finally in Switzerland, where she must confron t evil incarnate in the most direct way imaginable. Exposing evil that is at once centuries old and efficiently modern, and probin g the dark paths of sexuality and madness, Jane Stanton Hitchcock. Seller Inventory # 3166ap
