Bury Him Darkly
by John F. Blackburn· 2017
Over two hundred years ago the body of the notorious Sir Martin Railstone was interred. His followers claim him as a genius of the arts, a poet without parallel, an artist second to none and one of the great thinkers of his day. The Church of England has rather a different view, considering him to be nothing less than a British de Sade and perhaps the spiritual godfather of Aleister Crowley. Now, long after his death, planned construction will leave his tomb deep beneath the waters of a new dam. His followers believe that there are important secrets buried with him, and one, George Banks, dares to open the tomb to find out. There was something buried in Railstone’s tomb, something horrible that has been confined for over two hundred years and now it’s free again. George Banks saw it and died a screaming madman as a result, and the death of George Banks was just the beginning. Four very unlikely allies are drawn together to try and stop this threat before all of England is turned to an abattoir.
