The written word can build worlds, inspiring and advancing civilizations to the limits of the universe—but it also has the power to destroy. A collection of books, untouched and forgotten for over a century, is about to set in motion the discovery of a devil-worshiping cult, one as old as recorded history itself. Few have ever cracked open this dark brotherhood’s identity, and one man alone stands in the way of the Bracken Covenant and their future inheritor of the faith—an English professor who unwittingly gets entangled with the cult.Trapped within some of the Covenant’s deepest, most wicked chambers, Dr. Carver comes across young, future acolytes of the cult. His escape becomes intertwined with the kidnapped children. Struggling to survive the horrors of the elaborate underground cultist den, outnumbered and vulnerable, he must lead the kids through trial after trial of both man and beast to escape before the Covenant can cave in the underground passages, trapping them inside a den of evil—doomed to share the same fate as the hundreds of tortured spirits that reside there.This demonic cult chose the wrong professor to sacrifice.
