Il potere delle tenebre

This time, the danger for Tex and his pards comes from the Ville Lumiere, Paris, the theater of every extravagance and wonder. One of which is Narbas, a Hindu sorcerer capable of promoting the return, in earthly guise, of spirits lost in the shadow realms. Imagine, then, what the consequences could be of a meeting between Narbas and Lily Dickart, now Countess Leonov. You guessed it: bringing his brother Mephisto back among us, so that he can finally take his long-awaited revenge. The problem is that Narbas needs the corpse of the old devil to snatch his soul from the afterlife... And the only person who knows the access to the dungeons of the castle where Mephisto's bones lie is the beautiful mambo Loa! Mephisto's unquenchable hatred, the cold cunning of his sister Lily, the riches of Baron Boris Leonov... These are the pieces that make up the terrible plan of revenge that is about to crush the lives of Tex, Carson, Kit and Tiger. The necromancer returned from the underworld lives only to drag his enemies to destruction, and one of them is already in his hands... The network of deception and evil that the diabolical Mephisto has woven with the black thread of hatred tightens inexorably around our pards. Carson is already in the hands of the necromancer and his sister Lily. Walcott's men, under the orders of Count Leonov, are on the trail of Kit and Tiger Jack. What would become of them if they managed to capture them? Meanwhile, Tex corners the strange aristocrat and, shortly after, has his first dramatic confrontation with Mephisto!
