Murder at the Black Mass

By Mark Millard

Walpurgisnacht. A night claimed by practitioners of the Black Arts as its own. It is a night to abandon restraints; a night to embrace wanton lusts; a night to indulge the forbidden. It is a night for murder. It began the hour before midnight with a ritual to summon dark forces, an orgy to raise psychic energies, and culminated with the sacrifice of an innocent teenage girl.

The cult members present all claim that acolyte Jason Blake stabbed Elizabeth Spencer in the heart and slit her throat.

Attorney Jon Kelly is asked by a judge to take Jason's defense. The facts of the case, Jason's apparent guilt, and the openly evil purpose of the murder repulse him, but he reluctantly agrees. To his surprise, he begins to uncover evidence that the young man might be innocent. But if Jason didn't commit the murder, who did? Someone-or something-doesn't want Kelly to find out. Now he might be fighting not only for Jason's life but his own.
