** A young woman sees a walking dead in the open streets of Whitby. A train full of corpses crashes into Kings Cross. In an Asylum, a gruesome nightmare becomes horrible reality. All this should have been a warning to Kyle and his partner Benjamin of the Order of Seekers. ** "Mundus vult decipi, ergo decipiatur. The world wants to be deceived; let it be deceived!" - Motto of the Order of Seekers - London 1899. Where spirit calling has become as normal as cricket and tennis, the lines between fantasy and reality blur. In fine society, occultism and an affiliation with 'secret' lodges are part of the latest fashion. A particularly exclusive group of this kind is the Order of Seekers, dedicated to researching, keeping secrets, and covering up supernatural events. The Magician Kyle Crowford and the Military Doctor Dr. Benjamin Archer belong to that lodge. Their latest order: a girl is said to have seen a revenant in Whitby in broad daylight. Was it just the mirage of a twisted mind or horrible facts? A race against time begins for the seekers because their tracks always lead them to a clue: vampires. If everything turns out to be true and the dead walk the earth, the living will fill the graves by the hundreds. What begins for the two men with a seemingly harmless order develops into a landslide of events, the extent of which soon terrorizes the whole of London. **** Cover by Thinkerling
