An expedition into the Guatemalan jungle unearths the legendary Lost Gods of Mayu—ancient idols said to carry a terrible curse—and Adam Stokes, an aging archaeologist hungry for the recognition that has eluded him, draws the mystery statue in a fateful lottery.

Dan Gale's quiet life running a trade paper takes a devastating turn when his wife drags him to court, convincing a judge that he's a dangerous madman—but only after dark. Sentenced to an bizarre legal arrangement, Gale must report to an asylum each night at eight o'clock, leaving his days free to run his business while his evenings become a nightmare of confinement.

Each account builds an atmosphere of dread and the unknowable, leaving readers to wonder what forces might be at work in the skies above us.
