A few short weeks after the horror of 9/11 Michael Davenport, an English journalist employed by the occult magazine Enigma, returns to America for the first time since nearly losing his life in the seamy drug wars of Ciudad Juarez to investigate an obscure report. Since his boss had thrown that copy of Al Jazeera across his desk Michael had become obsessed by a story about two salvage workers who had seen something decidedly unusual emerging from the rubble of Ground Zero twenty-six days after the towers fell. A mirage most probably. A figment of over-tired imaginations. A wisp of smoke or some kind of silly American gag. Very unlikely to be of any serious political consequence but there was just the slimmest possibility that it might be something, or someone, beyond our ordinary human world.
