Evil Covenant

This novel exploits the occult concept of entities that prolong their lives forever by taking over & inhabiting, human bodies. At the small Southern California college of South Coast University two scientist, Sven Jonson & Lil Stanhope are convinced that by keeping a body's temperature close to the freezing point, human life can be extended to near immorality. Their assistant Tom Gerard dies of a heart attack, yet his wife, Ann suspects he had been murdered. No one believes her, except Detective McGuire, who, puzzled by the previous disappearance of two of Sven's students, eagerly helps Ann to find the murderer. He is certain that Sven Jonson is the culprit; he is also certain that some gruesome experiments took place. Matters become complicated, as not only Ann & McGuire fall in love, but Ann finds Tom - or someone looking exactly like Tom - alive. Unexpectedly Sven becomes the next murder victim & while Lil, Ann's staunch friend turns against her, Ann has to live through a number of occult nightmares.
