Publisher's summary

Would you mutilate mankind for love? That is the question of “The Flesh Sutra.” In Fin de siècle Boston, the mystic healer Alecsi Keresh falls into the desperate embrace of his lover, Mrs. Olivia Spalding, as he is shot dead. In those final moments before the soul passes through the gateway of death forever, Alecsi's rage transforms his power and he forces his way back. But he does so through ghastly means and returns to life - as an abomination. All for love. Olivia is terrified of death. Alecsi dreads abandonment. Recognizing each other as soul mates, they resolve to atone for their sins by helping humanity. But their jealousies mar their works, often with hideous results. And to further warp their efforts, a vengeful spirit stalks them. One that grows more powerful at every turn. Will the depraved lovers succeed and transform mankind? Therein lies the answer to “The Flesh Sutra.”
