Cara Negra: When Down and Abandoned the Dark Side Beckons to Us, We Cannot Resist Our Affinity.

Middle-aged rich man, George Norcott leading a double life, on the surface he is a respected resident of New Canaan, Connecticut but in a black mask he is Cara Negra, a mysterious bandit and the great grandson of a 19th century Transylvanian robber baron. Using indentured foreigners as slave labor, Cara Negra operates an illegal gold mine and coin minting business in New York State. Greg Sewell, a rookie Department of Labor investigator and undercover narcotic agent is in love with Gertie and she is blessed with his child. Will Greg be able to uncover Cara Negra secrets and prevent Gertie's forced marriage to Norcott? Will Norcott commit bigamy and will he also marry, as Cara Negra, Anica, the unsuspecting daughter of the mine-master. There is a devilish underground wedding ceremony, corrupt police killing the innocent, explosions and a car chase, and surprising revelations and allegiance switching. Is the devil indestructible? Will Greg be able to resist his affinity to the dark side when he is betrayed by the one whom he trusted the most? A historically true figure that has his origins in Transylvania and comes to full life in America, a supernatural power that knows no national boundaries and a family curse that can never be broken; it is all there and challenges our accepted perception of reality. Will we ever be able to sleep again knowing that a sinister thing made permanent residence in our Northern woods?
