The Lower Deep
ByPublisher Description
Terror Lurks beneath the waves...
In Dame Marie, sleeping villagers walk in the dead of night - they return without memory, naked and soaking from the sea...when they return at all...
Dr. Stephen Spence is new to the village, but he has seen Evil before - when the darkest rites of Voodoo nearly cost him his life.
But Voodoo has two faces; and the Doctor is beginning to see that only the village Houngan - Voodoo priest - may have medicine strong enough to defeat the forces calling from the cove. Now, Spence must convince the rest of the villagers that unimaginable horrors await them all in The Lower Deep.
This nightmare of an ancient civilizations beneath the sea, inviting comparisons to H. P. Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith, is only one of many titles by Horror, Mystery, and Fantasy master Hugh B.
