A little girl spins a hateful web. On Halloween night, Nelly Huggett's mother chases her through the woods, screaming venom, knife in hand. Gillian isn't a nice woman, but this is different. She is different, strange, not herself. Nelly's father has been acting odd, too, and her brother… So Nelly does what any other precocious ten-year-old would do--she calls supernatural investigators and sisters Hyla and Lizeth Frontenac, in the hopes they might find out what happened to her family. But in the Huggett house, perched on the rugged Maine coast, the sisters discover that nothing is what it seems. Not the Huggetts and certainly not Nelly. Is she just spirited? Misunderstood? Or is she a liar, like everyone says? She is a dangerous foe, this little girl, with a devious imagination and a dark secret. A dangerous foe whose deception just might ensnare the sisters forever.

An authority on Hinduism and renowned for his directorship of the Institute of Comparative Music Studies in Berlin and Venice, Alain Daniélou is also an accomplished pianist, dancer, player of the Indian vînâ, painter, linguist and translator, photographer, and world traveler. To these attainments he has added The Way to the Labyrinth--as vivid, uninhibited, and wide-ranging a memoir as one is ever likely to encounter, now translated and published in English for the first time. Born of a haute-bourgeoise French family--his mother an ardent Catholic, his father an anticlerical leftwing politician, his older brother a cardinal--Daniélou spent a solitary childhood. Escaping from his family milieu, he went to Paris, where he fell in with avant-garde, bohemian, sexually liberated circles, among whose luminaries were Cocteau, Diaghilev, Max Jacob, and Maurice Sachs. But however fervently he plunged into various activities, he felt some other destiny awaited him. After a number of journeys, some of them highly adventurous, he found his real home in India. He spent twenty years there, fifteen of them in Benares on the banks of the Ganges. There he immersed himself in the study of Sanskrit, Hindu philosophy, music, and the art of the ancient temples of Northern India, and converted to the Hindu religion. But times changed, and soon after India gained its independence, he returned to live again in Europe and devoted much of his great energy to the encouragement of traditional musics from around the world.
