Finally escaping the workaday routine as a staff officer, Marine Lieutenant Jack Lewis arrives with his unit in war-torn Haiti to help restore order. When a team of paramilitary zombie hunters recruits him to help locate a mysterious Portal leading to the Underworld, will Jack, a handful of marines, and a beautiful voodoo priestess be able to survive in a world overrun with demons and zombies? In his debut novel, Teague de La Plaine draws on his experience as a marine intelligence and special missions officer and his fascination with the occult to deliver a fast-past narrative that will keep you turning the pages. The first in a series of books about The Eidolon Activity, Vodou takes us on a savage journey around Haiti, battling old superstitions and enduring prejudices. Ultimately, goodness may prevail--but at what cost? What is "The Eidolon Activity?" The Eidolon Activity is one of the oldest and longest-running intelligence and paramilitary organizations in existence. It was founded to "investigate supernatural activities and protect humanity from malicious spirits, phantoms, negative emanations, and evil creatures." Formally established in 1006 CE as MVI: Ministerio Venatores Idolon (English: Ministry of Wraith Hunters) during the brightest supernova ever recorded, the history of the Activity (as it is informally known) is shrouded in mystery, going back to ancient Egypt and beyond.
