You see, Dr Kosarek, it was at that moment that they would feel the presence of the Devil and beg God to come and deliver them from him. And it was at that moment that I made them see - that they finally realized - that God had been there all along. It was then they realized that the Devil is just God in his night attire. From international bestselling author Craig Russell comes a modern Gothic masterpiece:Six confined monsters. A killer on the loose.1935.

At the same time, a terrifying, demonic killer known as 'Leather Apron' is butchering victims across Prague. Successfully eluding capture, it would seem his depraved crimes are committed by the Devil himself.Maybe they are... and what links him with the insane inmates of the Castle of the Eagles?Only the Devil knows. And it is up to Viktor to find out.
