The Manitou is coming...


For Karen Tandy the terror is over.  Her wracked and spent body lies on the abandoned floor of a Manhattan hospital.  A strange sac-like growth hangs limply from her back, a discarded cocoon.

The lights are out in this part of Sisters of Jerusalem. The area is blanketed by a dense, icy fog.  Somewhere within this murky black shroud lurks a terrible Indian spirit, born from the shriveled remains of innocent youth, returned to avenge the lost souls of his red brethren.

For Dr. Hughes, Harry Erskine, and Singing Rock, the terror has just begun.  These disparate souls, one a healer, one a trickster, and the third a shaman, will need all their wit and courage to combat four centuries of Indian sorcery.  The life of Karen Tandy has not sated the Manitou's bloodthirst for revenge: he will make the streets of New York run red.

Can modern technology defeat the black forces of ancient Indian magic?

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
