Augustus Darcy Occultist, writer, investigator
One year ago, a mysterious society commisioned Darcy to compile a guide to occult London. By the end of 1933, Darcy was dead. It fell to me, Amery Greville, his friend and executor, to publish his manuscript.
Within these tales of The Smoke's legendary past are scattered clues to its future. Is a magical war brewing? Are forces from other dimensions breaking through into our own? Who are the mysterious brotherhood? Who killed Augustus Darcy and why?
This book is an autobiography, an occult miscellany and a murder mystery. It is a book which should not be read, and yet cannot be cast aside. It is all these things and more, but most of all it is a guide for your own journey through the streets of the Big Smoke.
Use it as a guide as you follow in Darcy's footsteps and may your gods be with you in the days ahead.
