The Veiled City

The truth awaits in the depths. Those who find it rarely wish they had.

In 1923, the coastal town of Veilhaven, New England, smells of salt, factory coal, and something else that no sane person could name. Its cobblestone streets descend toward a harbor where fishermen return with empty nets and empty eyes in equal measure. Miskatonic University guards libraries that its own professors avoid consulting after nightfall. Beneath the Atlantic waters, in the abysses where sunlight has never reached, something that slept for eons begins to stir. The investigators who follow the trail of the missing, the occultists who read what they should not read, the veterans who know that horror takes many forms — all converge on Veilhaven. All discover that there are truths the human brain was not built to contain. Knowledge is both the weapon and the wound.
