Book Description

December 6, 2003
In 1851 Colonel Alexei DeLensky is given a Dacha, a magnificent hunting lodge to be built on his property in the Caucasus mountains. What he doesn't know is that the exquisite mansion was made by the forced labor of countless Gypsy peasants, its mortar literally made from their ground bones and blood. It is a cursed dwelling filled with unspeakable horrors.

In 1981 Victor DeLensky, Alexei's grandson, journeys to Southern California from his home in England to settle the estate of his recently deceased father. The Dacha has been relocated to California, and rebuilt, stone by stone, timber for timber. Victor has no idea of the nightmare that awaits him. He doesn't understand the sacred Exorcism seals that are never to be removed from certain items, specifically a Karabaugh carpet, consecrated by a Zoroastrian witch a century earlier that allows it to serve as a window to the netherworld, a portal for two deadly demons, one of lust and another of cannibalism, to cross into the world of the living in search of human hosts -- and victims.


Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

The Dacha is for true Horror enthusiasts who want to be frightened out of their wits. This novel pulls no punches and certainly isn't for children. It's graphic, it's raw -- it captures the face of evil and gives it voice.
