For a new messiah has resurrected the Nazgûl and the mad new rhythm may be more than anyone bargained for--a requiem of demonism, mind control, and death, whose apocalyptic tune only Sandy may be able to change in time . . . before everyone follows the beat. <p/> <b>"The wilder aspects of the '60s . . . roar back to life in this hallucinatory story by a master of chilling suspense."<i>--Publishers Weekly</i></b><br> <b> </b><br> <b>"What a story, full of nostalgia and endless excitement. . . .
