Dark rites

the long version

The actors in the 1922 production of Weinstein s Wonderacts have a secret: they aren t just performers, they re members of a Circle, a coven dedicated to enlightenment through magic. To enhance their power, they have their eye on the new girl in the cast, Margarite, a natural witch. But the coven s leader, Vincent, isn t satisfied. He s hungry for more, to become a Complete Man. He turns to a mysterious wanderer for counsel, but could the teacher s intentions and rituals be malevolent? Being the only one with true gifts, it s up to Margarite to save her friends from enacting these dark rites.
