London, October 1971:
Reluctant psychic Harry Undine has problems.
Hippies would consider his sixth sense 'cool', but Undine loathes it. More than that, he fears the soul-wrenching pain it can inflict, and the risk of people glimpsing the shameful sensitivity beneath his macho surface. Undine isn't the man he wants to be, no matter how much he pretends otherwise.
Seeking a cure has become an obsession – a secret, lonely quest more important than the paranormal research he should be carrying out for the Corsi Institute.
The last person Undine needs in his life right now is Jo Cross, a young policewoman determined to secure help for a terrified old lady.
And the last place he should visit is Lavender Edge. In that sinister house on the outskirts of London, something more ancient and more horrifying than Undine could imagine has already begun to stir.
