Chapter One (#ulink_bfaaaa96-a417-53b9-9c0b-56a51b19659d)

The penalty for summoning the dead back to earth is death; if the summoned spirit does not kill its summoner, be assured the Church will.

—The Book of Truth, Laws, Article 3

Ghosts were stronger underground; no witch willingly went below the surface of the earth, not without a Church edict or a death wish. Chess had both to varying degrees, but that didn’t make the doorway looming behind the skinny man holding the cup any more appealing. The doorway, and the stairs. Down into a basement, down into the ground.
