MORS VINCIT OMNIA
Der Tod besiegt alles
Wahlspruch von Haus Lethe

Acht mächtige Studenten-Verbindungen beherrschen nicht nur den Campus der Elite-Universität Yale, sondern nehmen seit Generationen Einfluss auf Politik, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft der USA – das neunte Haus jedoch überwacht die Einhaltung der Regeln. Denn die Macht der Verbindungen beruht auf uralter, dunkler Magie: So können die Mitglieder der »Skull & Bones« die Börsenkurse aus den Eingeweiden lebender Opfer vorhersagen, während Haus Aurelian durch Blutmagie Einfluss auf das geschriebene Wort nehmen kann – ebenso hilfreich für Juristen wie für Bestseller-Autoren …

Als auf dem Campus von Yale eine Studentin brutal ermordet wird, sind die Fähigkeiten der Außenseiterin Alex Stern gefragt, die eben erst vom neunten Haus rekrutiert wurde: Nur Alex ist es auch ohne den Einsatz gefährlicher Magie möglich, die Geister der Toten zu sehen. Um eine Verschwörung aufzudecken, die weit über 100 Jahre zurückreicht, muss Alex ihre Fähigkeiten bis aufs Äußerste ausreizen.

Campus-Leben, dunkle Magie und eine Heldin mit Kult-Potenzial: »Das neunte Haus« verbindet Urban Fantasy mit Gothic Noir zu einem unwiderstehlichen Mix.

Work Description

Galaxy “Alex” Stern is the most unlikely member of Yale’s freshman class. Raised in the Los Angeles hinterlands by a hippie mom, Alex dropped out of school early and into a world of shady drug dealer boyfriends, dead-end jobs, and much, much worse. By age twenty, in fact, she is the sole survivor of a horrific, unsolved multiple homicide. Some might say she’s thrown her life away. But at her hospital bed, Alex is offered a second chance: to attend one of the world’s most elite universities on a full ride. What’s the catch, and why her?

Still searching for answers to this herself, Alex arrives in New Haven tasked by her mysterious benefactors with monitoring the activities of Yale’s secret societies. These eight windowless “tombs” are well-known to be haunts of the future rich and powerful, from high-ranking politicos to Wall Street and Hollywood’s biggest players. But their occult activities are revealed to be more sinister and more extraordinary than any paranoid imagination might conceive.
