The scarlet gospels
(Book)

For nearly thirty years the Hell Priest-better known to us by his descriptive mantle of Pinhead-has been one of the most recognizable and famous characters in the pantheon of horror. Acclaimed literary icon Clive Barker brings him back with the final chapter of his narrative begun in The Hellbound Heart, closing the circle on the Cenobite mythos for all time. - Long-beleaguered detective Harry D'Amour ( The Last Illusion, Ever ville), investigator of all things supernatural, magical, and malevolent, has been battling his won personal demons for years. When he happens upon a Lament Configuration-a deeply intricate puzzle box that is rumored to open a doorway to Hell itself-his own demons are replaced by the real thing as he finds himself caught in a terrifying game of cat and mouse that is bloody, disturbing, and brilliantly complex. _ These words are Hell's untold scripture: The Scarlet Gospels, the long awaited horror epic as told by the undisputed master of the form.
