The Tomb (Vol. 2 Enemy Cycle - Paperback Edition)

“A combination of detective story and horror fiction.” Publishers Weekly The Enemy Cycle series didn't begin as a saga. The Keep, The Tomb, and The Magic Touch were written by F. Paul Wilson as standalone books, but with the same horror and suspense, tense narrative, and dark atmospheres. The enigmatic Repairman Jack, from The Repairman Jack Series, first appears in The Tomb. Repairman Jack lives illegally in New York City, without an identity card, without social security, without paying taxes, and earns his living helping people who can't rely on the police to solve their personal problems. In The Tomb, he is hired by the Indian Kussum Bahkti to retrieve a necklace that possesses great healing and longevity powers, as well as protection against bloodthirsty creatures called Rakoshi. At the same time, Jack's ex-girlfriend asks him to help her solve a kidnapping. There are other mysterious plots in the book that mark the narrative of F. Paul Wilson, considered a master of horror.
