Alec’s heart pounded; since childhood, it had been his ambition to gain entrance to a secret society, and tonight was to be his initiation. Insights would be revealed, ancient mysteries laid bare for his inspection. He stood on the dais, black cloak about his shoulders, curved blade held aloft in his right hand, his left holding back the goat’s head. At that moment, the president of the Rotary Club informed Alec that he could simply take his seat.
