A signal for what's to come perhaps? Or just her nerves?Regardless, it doesn't take a believer to convince Athena that taking this assignment is a mistake. Slowly, she uncovers the stomach-churning horrors that were inflicted upon Sarton's residents."Wh would nn do n of these experiments, e–ll on h–ldrn?
