The sequel to "Elements of Mind" takes the story to late 19th century France, where "mesmerists
of France and England battle for control of a mysteriously powerful statue, and a French doctor enlists the help of no less than Sigmund Freud to find out why it has driven two men mad. Walter Hunt has created an alternate reality that seems similar to ours but differs in important ways. Serious, yet highly entertaining, this should please fans of the first book.
