The Gate Of Moloch (The Seven Gates Book 1)

The brutal and mysterious murder of a young student unites the eminent universities of Harvard and Oxford together in fear. A second killing; of a U.S. Army Generals’ son, brings the FBI into an investigation that spans three continents.

A popular lecturer and his favourite students begin to realise that the deaths are a result of their research trip to Jerusalem, where they meddled in an ancient ritual designed to bring the underworld to earth. Always a cynic of religion and superstition; the lecturer suddenly finds himself confronted with the unimaginable consequences of their actions.

For three thousand years the Temple of Moloch has remained buried in the Hinnom Valley outside the walls of the Old City. Followers of this ancient cult were executed by Solomon and his heirs for their evil practices. These included the sacrifice of their children. Yet the religion survived and lay waiting for resurrection. Despite the warnings of a secret order, Doctor Larsson and his students find their way into the temple and are coerced into performing the ritual that was believed to bring the Demon to life.

Believing they were only humouring a senile old man and hoping to make a rare discovery; the aftermath of their ceremony had them asking a terrifying question.
Are they being hunted by a psychotic cult, or have they created the opening on earth for the gates of Hell?

As they seek an answer, they must flee an unstoppable pursuit and face the ultimate showdown with forces beyond their understanding.
