Contents

In Victorian London, a seance goes awry, leaving four people dead and two missing. The investigators find themselves embroiled in a bizarre plot involving the mysterious Trismegistus Club: an organisation of stage magicians, occult scholars, mystics, mediums, and sorcerers both would-be and otherwise. De-evolution, murder, doppelgangers, a genius doctor who is anything BUT mad, and inter-dimensional aliens abound in this London-based campaign for Cthulhu by Gaslight. Do the Trismegistans stand for good or evil? And what is the terrible secret of the ensorcelled mirrors?

The project has been cancelled by Miskatonic River Press (likely because the author has decided not to complete the project). Prior to cancellation the publishers released a short PDF providing source material on the Trismegistus Club, which presumably would have been included in the final book.
