Boston Metaphysical Society: Prelude (A Seven Story Collection)

Imagine an alternate steampunk history where ghosts and demons are a normal part of life. Families known as the Great Houses control the economy of the Great States of America and the middle class and the lower class Irish sole purpose is to not only to serve them, but to rid their lives of supernatural beings.

Discover the life of Medium and Spirit Photographer, Andrew O’Sullivan, before he went to work for ex-Pinkerton detective, Samuel Hunter in The Devil Within. Search for demons (human and otherwise) alongside Granville Woods in The Demons of Liberty Row. And learn why Caitlin O’Sullivan must hide who she is from those closest to her in The Secret of Kage House.
