Summary

"The Danger Mark" was written in the year 1909 by American writer Robert William Chambers. "The Danger Mark" is one of the most popular novels of Robert William Chambers; it has been translated into several other languages around the world and a silent drama film based on this book was directed by Hugh Ford in 1918.

In the early years of his literary career, Robert William Chambers focused on weird horror, earning the admiration of his peers, including the great H.P. Lovecraft. Later he turned his attention to high-society drama and romance, but his treatment of these seemingly trivial topics is freighted with the same intensity and intrigue that characterized his previous work. 
"The Danger Mark" follows the ups and downs of an orphaned twin whose hedonistic tendencies may prove to be her downfall.

    England, 1643. Puritanical fervor has gripped the nation. And in Manningtree, a town depleted of men since the wars began, the hot terror of damnation burns in the hearts of women left to their own devices. Rebecca West, fatherless and husbandless, chafes against the drudgery of her days, livened only occasionally by her infatuation with the handsome young clerk John Edes. But then a newcomer, who identifies himself as the Witchfinder General, arrives. A mysterious, pious figure dressed from head to toe in black, Matthew Hopkins takes over the Thorn Inn and begins to ask questions about what the women on the margins of this diminished community are up to. Dangerous rumors of covens, pacts, and bodily wants have begun to hang over women like Rebecca—and the future is as frightening as it is thrilling. Brimming with contemporary energy and resonance, The Manningtree Witches plunges its listeners into the fever and menace of the English witch trials, where suspicion, mistrust, and betrayal run amok as a nation's arrogant male institutions start to realize that the very people they've suppressed for so long may be about to rise up and claim their freedom.

    When immortals clash, mortals will pay the ultimate price. 
Kat Dubois has been sidelined. With a single word from Heru—no—her plans to save humanity from the Cascade Virus one mortal at a time are put on hold indefinitely. But Kat isn't willing to sit by, watching the world as she knows it crumble around her. While Heru awaits a miracle discovery that may never come, Kat shuns his orders and takes rogue action. Thanks to her trusty deck of tarot cards, she knows that at least the universe is on her side. Probably. 
Alongside Nik, Kat throws herself into her work, intending to transform humans into immortal Nejerets as quickly as possible. She refuses to give up, even as her partner in humanitarian crime seems to be losing his grip on reality. Even as she, herself, senses that she’s fighting a losing battle. Even as the universe reveals its truly duplicitous nature and the way onward seems impossible. 
Kat is nothing, if not stubborn. She won’t give up. Not without a fight. 
Underground is the third book in a tough-girl urban fantasy series set in Seattle, WA. If you like intense action, gritty characters, unconventional magic, and Egyptian mythology, then you'll love this unique, fast-paced adventure.
