The Necromancer's House

Those Across the River, a â€œbeautifully writtenâ€¦exceedingly cleverâ€ (Boston Herald) masterpiece of â€œgenuine terrorâ€ (New York Times bestselling author F. Paul Wilson), was hailed by #1 New York Times bestselling author Charlaine Harris as â€œone of the best first novels Iâ€™ve ever read.â€ Now comes Christopher Buehlmanâ€™s new novelâ€”one of uncommon horrors hiding behind the walls of the house next doorâ€¦

â€œYou think you got away with something, donâ€™t you? But your time has run out. We know where you are. And we are coming.â€
The man on the screen says this in Russian.
â€œWho are you?â€
The man smiles, but itâ€™s not a pleasant smile.
The image freezes.
The celluloid burns exactly where his mouth is, burns in the nearly flat U of his smile. His eyes burn, too.
The man fades, leaving the burning smiley face smoldering on the screen.
â€œOh Christ,â€ Andrew says.
The television catches fire.

Andrew Ranulf Blankenship is a handsome, stylish nonconformist with wry wit, a classic Mustang, and a massive library. He is also a recovering alcoholic and a practicing warlock, able to speak with the dead through film. His house is a maze of sorcerous booby traps and escape tunnels, as yours might be if you were sitting on a treasury of Russian magic stolen from the Soviet Union thirty years ago. Andrew has long known that magic was a brutal game requiring blood sacrifice and a willingness to confront death, but his many years of peace and comfort have left him soft, more concerned with maintaining false youth than with seeing to his own defense. Now a monster straight from the pages of Russian folklore is coming for him, and frost and death are coming with her.
