About this listen

Seventy years before the Red Equinox, the origin of the SPECTRA Files

Catherine Littlefield was raised in a seaside New England town haunted by whispers of arcane lore that remained tantalizingly out of reach to a daughter of well-to-do Baptists. But when her studies at Barnard College in New York lead to an encounter with a secret society, she is offered access to the knowledge she has always sought...if she can pass a test.

Dispatched to California to infiltrate the occult world of a rival magician - a pioneering rocket scientist with ties to the apocalyptic Starry Wisdom Church - Catherine soon discovers that she’s not the only one spying on Jack Parsons. A fledgling government agency devoted to the investigation of weird science in the aftermath of the World War II has assigned a pair of hard-nosed agents to gather information on her target, whose experiments with sex magic and eldritch artifacts are approaching a cosmic crescendo.

Drawn into the volatile chemistry of Jack’s inner circle and tempted with knowledge and power, Catherine must determine what’s at stake for a world threatened by dark forces and decide where her true loyalties lie.

I have always been a fan of H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos, but not always a fan of his writing style. Sometimes I just didn't want to work that hard! Douglas Wynne has come to my rescue with stories full of the Great Old Ones, suspense, and horror combined with a modern writing style that conveys every nuance of the world that he wants you to see. Or in this case, hear. This is a wonderful Audible production with Matthew Cohn providing a smooth voice and pronouncing those tongue-tying names so well that even Nyarlathotep himself was pleased!

Well done!

Great Introduction to SPECTRA!
