Ancient Echoes
Two centuries ago, a covert expedition following Lewis and Clark vanished into the Idaho wilderness.
They were never seen again.
Now seven students have disappeared in the same mountains-and archaeologist Michael Rempart is the only man who suspects the truth.
In his forties and dangerously compelling, Rempart carries more than academic controversy. He is the last heir of a lineage steeped in forbidden alchemy-and he knows that those who draw too near him rarely remain untouched by its shadow.
He believes the land isn't hiding bodies.
It's guarding a secret.
Buried beneath the forest lies a power whispered about for centuries-an alchemical force tied to immortality, legend, and something far older than recorded history. The only warning comes from a journal written in 1806 by a dying explorer who claimed he had witnessed evil made flesh.
Most dismissed his words as madness.
Rempart isn't so sure.
The deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes: whatever was unleashed long ago was never destroyed.
It was waiting.
And it has begun to stir again.
