With two sections of the dissected occult artifact known as the Sigsand Manuscript now in his hands, Gravel has a new mission, beyond personal retribution: Retrieving of the remaining pieces of the Sigsand from the hands of the surviving Minor Seven. But that's easier said than done, when the next magician on his list is an apparition, in control of a stampeding, blood-thirsty herd of ghost horses that charge forth into the night from 'The Stables Of The Dead!'
