The Pact

By: Schoell, William

William Schoell's sixth novel returns to print, meticulously restored and revised by the author for the first time since its original publication

He is Hell-Born.

Fear of war gripped the heart of young naval recruit Steven Russell. It gnawed at his innards, screamed at him from every New York newspaper, blasted at him from the radio. Poet, dreamer, visionary... he saw a future of blood and bombs... spattered bodies... severed limbs. No stranger to the occult, he took the ultimate survival measure: Steven Russell sold his soul to the Devil in exchange for the promise that he would live through World War II. Kissing his bride goodbye, he sailed off with a knowing smile... but the Devil had the last laugh.

He is Arisen.

For over forty years, Marjorie Russell has pined for her husband who fell in the thundering attack on Pearl Harbor. Yet now, in haunting dreams, she can hear his voice... distant, eerie, beckoning. But Steven went down to the sea in death... or did he?

And he will not be stopped.

Marjorie Russell is searching for the truth. And a numbing nightmare of diabolical terror is just beginning.
