This is the penultimate of a ten-part story about a tale of ancient mysticism strange terrors and weird deaths. Involved in this adventure are Dr. Julian English, renowned archaeologist and palaeontologist, and his daughter Judith. The story starts on one of the hills surrounding San Francisco. It is the English family home, standing alone in a garden of neglected shrubbery and tangled trees. About the whole place is a tall-dilapidated hedge that cuts off the house from the rest of the world. It is a dreary night. The fog hangs in a sinister wet blanket over the city.
