Seven Footprints to Satan

Seven Footprints to Satan

Abraham Merritt

A Manhattan gentleman accidently witnesses a terrifying ritual in an abandoned church and is thrust into a deadly game with the Prince of Darkness himself. The Master of the Hidden Place offers a bargain: walk seven sacred footprints in a precise pattern and claim dominion over untold wealth and power. Stumble, and belong to Satan forever. What follows is a fever-dream of secret covens, shadow creatures, and creeping dread as our hero navigates a hidden world of ancient evil. Merritt crafts a pulp masterpiece that moves at breathless speed from Manhattan penthouses to a black throne room in the underworld. It's gothic horror meets adventure fantasy, with prose that crackles and settings that haunt. For readers who want to be terrified and thrilled in equal measure.
