Trust no one
Rollins, James, 1961-2026
Book
The ritualistic murder of a British professor at the University of Exeter points to a startling cast of suspects: his own students. All are enrolled in a postgraduate program covering the history of witchcraft, folklore, & spiritualism. All evidence points to Sharyn Karr, an American student. Prior to the professor's death, he had thrust a centuries-old book upon her. It appears to be the handwritten & encrypted diary of an 18th-century mystic & occultist, the Comte de Saint-Germain. The professor begged her to keep the text safe, ending with a warning. Trust no one. Such a responsibility forces her into cooperation with Duncan Maxwell, a fellow postgrad. Already, Duncan has proven himself a savant with encryptions. Unfortunately, the pair clash at every level, but they need each other. Especially when they discover the book's opening words: Herein lies the secret to my immortality. Come find me, if you dare.
