Necromancy

Mauly Basterville is a sophisticated architect who is contemplating calling-off his engagement to a beautiful woman, because he fears the company she keeps. Zemoria Charnes, an old, eccentric woman who was chased-out of the South because-it is believed-she was connected to an occult mass-suicide. However, Mauly suspects Zemoria coerced his fiancée to believe: she could maintain her relationships with the dead. To get the facts about Zemoria and her strange dealings-with hope that his fiancée will disassociate herself, Mauly hires a "hard-nosed" South Philly investigator-Pete Perrell. And what Pete unravels is beyond belief- the final phase of Satanism...Passing the Veil.
