Three friends...
Terrible events...
It was a wild night. A full moon was shining on the columns and temples that lined the Roman Forum while a large black rat chased three mice down the steps of the Temple to Caesar. Further down, beside the Tiber, seven dim shapes could be glimpsed, loitering. Suddenly, they all gathered for safety in the shelter of a doorway. Within the round temple that stood close to the river, something was happening. Wisps of smoke were drifting out of the door and down the steps. Then a torch flared. The seven men grasped their knives when they heard an erie wooden tock tock sound, which had nothing human about it. The sound seemed to emanate from the innermost sanctum of the uninhabited temple. ‘Let’s get out of here, in the name of all the Gods!’ gasped one of the seven companions. Then they bolted, as if the god of the underworld himself was at their heels. Once they had put a safe distance behind them, they glanced back at the temple and froze, rigid with horror.
‘It’s coming!’ one of them whispered.
‘The Demon of the Night,’ gasped another, clasping his throat.Christian Tielmann weaves the threads of his scary stories about an ancient city...
Remus, Olivia and Meander are friends, known as R.O.M. for short, and they have to tackle fear itself. A huge phantom-like monster is terrifying Rome. Everywhere it goes it leaves sickness, lingering illness and fear. The friends are scared stiff, but they simply must find out what the phantom is seeking. Suddenly, Olivia’s father is in terrible danger...
