description: In his search to systematize the superatural, Dr John Silence, Blackwood's psychic detective, confronts anything from the nocturnal cat people of a sleepy French village with a really sinister secret to a reincarnated Egyptian fire-elemental embodied in a bowl of hot blood. Fear becomes a thread drawn so tightly it jangles, but never snaps. But you might.Cover design by Ink Studios.
