The reluctant professor of religion - Gregory Angell - returns in this sequel to 'The Lovecraft Code'. He has fled to a virtual underworld in a remote corner of Mongolia, nursing his psychic wounds and wondering how to re-enter a world he no longer recognises. When he finally does, his demons will precede him. Based on the themes in H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Dunwich Horror', this novel continues the earlier depiction of a struggle between two forces: not light versus darkness but us versus them. Beginning with the harrowing experience of an alien abductee in a small New England town and continuing through a series of encounters with a renowned mathematician, mercenary geneticists, an international ring of pornographers, the human trafficking cult of the Islamic State and practitioners of an arcane form of sexual occultism.
