This week's reading has me along on another adventure with special agent Aloysius Pendergast, this time aboard the maiden voyage of a luxury ocean liner as we sail across the Atlantic in search of an ancient Tibetan box sealed with a terrifying message, it's contents unknown, and try to find the thief who stole it from the monastery.
"The dark hole at the center of the mandala seemed to be alive, pulsing, crawling in the most repellent way, opening itself like some foul orifice.
