Simon Fraser and his young assistant, Tom McElrath are back again after their initial adventures in The Borgia Blade. Two beheadings, thirty years apart, send Professor Fraser and Tom on the trail of murder and adventure when they encounter the world's most formidable medium, Millicent Zacharias, who would "scare hell out of Jack the Ripper." There's a séance murder, and yet another slaying. The final séance uncovers two further attempts at murder. Are there two killers or only one? Is one of the older crowd guilty? Or perhaps there's a killer amongst the young? Is there an avenging child about? What did the doctor know that was so dangerous? Why the sudden change from saber to poison? Some of Simon's university colleagues are involved, most particularly, a much-despised colleague of yesteryear. "If only I could prove Roland Jepson did the dirty deeds, I'd cheerfully see him fried," says an irritated Simon. As usual, the sore-tried but patient Lieutenant Campbell has to put up with his good friend's penchant for maddening secrets, but in the end, the shadows fade and Simon, "does it again," as he did in the case of The Borgia Blade.

This is a book about how a boy?and a man?becomes a man. It's a guide to the process of masculine initiation, that ancient path every boy and man must take if they would become the man they long to be. The path whereby they come to know they are a man, and are able to live and love from a deep, centered strength. We live in a time where most men (and boys) are essentially fatherless. Whatever their circumstance, they have no man actually taking them through the many adventures, trials, battles and experiences they need to shape a masculine heart within them. They find themselves on their own to figure life out, and that is a lonely place to be. Their fears, anger, boredom, and their many addictions all come out of this fatherless place within them, a fundamental uncertainty in the core of their being. But there is a way. "We aren't meant to figure life out on our own," says John Eldredge. "God wants to father us." In The Way of the Wild Heart, Eldredge reveals how God comes to a man and takes him on the masculine journey, how nearly all the events of a man's life can come togther to provide the initiation he never received. And how parents can offer that initiation to their sons. Whatever your age may be, your Father is ready to take up your journey. For you are his son.

The very first moment she saw twelve-year-old Duncan McKenzie, she told God and her pony that she was going to marry that boy. He was handsome. He was kind.
