When a rock star is killed after trying to levitate from a fourth story window, and another member disappears from behind a locked door while demonstrating astral projection, Phin begins to suspect that the members of the society may be involved in something far blacker than seances. The curse of an Egyptian amulet, a dark seance parlor, lurking death in an orgone box, psychic poison and live burial—Sladek's brainteaser fairly creeps with fiendish happenings. It is superb entertainment. "Sladek combines artful mystery plotting, an intriguing cast of characters, an engaging hero with a wry sense of humor and a precise control of tone ... and comes up with a winner." —Publishers Weekly” ISBN: 0-8027-3043-4 Black Aura - John Sladek - 1974 Walker Publishing Company Paperback Condition: Acceptable.
