About This Book

A married couple, each nursing a secret plan to free themselves by engineering an apparent accident, become caught in a web of shared supernatural dreams and occult interference. A Rosicrucian narrator frames alternating scenes of waking scheming and dream-journeys, in which an astral star and a strange mist intrude on their chamber and give rise to double visions, spells, and moral reckonings. The narrative moves through linked dream-lands, occult explanations, and the practical consequences of ambition and jealousy, examining how spiritual forces and human intent collide and reshape the couple's fate.
