A classic fantasy/horror novella. A young Welsh woman's mind is destroyed by a "scientist's" attempt to enable her to see the god of nature, Pan. Years later Helen Vaughan arrives on the London social scene and disturbing events begin to occur to the men she corrupts. Who is this woman? What evil was brought into the world by Dr. Raymond's experiment?
