Synopsis

Twelve years ago, Phineas O’Hanlon - a mariner who ran and protected opium for a local triad “Three Finger Tang” during the aftermath of The Second Opium War - survived an attack from the living dead.
 
He’s spent the last few years of his life attempting to discover the cause of the reanimation. While reading over a newly acquired journal from ancient Rome, O’Hanlon and his caretaker are visited by two law enforcement agents who have questions about them.
 
As everyone’s past is revealed, and secrets uncovered, can O’Hanlon discover the reason behind the resurrection of the deceased and move on with his life?

    All words have a value, they have a truth.  Even misinforming us is part of their job.  But they are only words, sticks and stones etc etc. 
     
    But in this volume our authors explore the use of curses.  These strings of words might seem harmless enough if you don’t believe they can have any ill effect.  Little by little, though, sometimes they do.   Our brains connect curse with that action, that happening and now we might be seeing them as cause and effect.   Perhaps that curse really does have some power, some potency, and if that is so maybe that curse is malevolent and its true purpose is not to wish us good.

    Something lurks in the darkness of the trees... 
    A group of friends goes on a hike in search of an ancient spring deep inside the forest. Mythical stories come from the woods - tales of gnomes, fairies, and other not so benevolent creatures. Everything changes for the group when they run into a hiker that mysteriously vanished in the area weeks ago. She is malnourished, dehydrated, and hurt, but she keeps raving about the danger in the woods, repeating one incoherent word over and over in a foreign language. By the time they turn back the way they came, it's too late. 
    There's something ancient in these woods. 
    Something far more dangerous than fairies and gnomes. 
    And it's after them.
