The Going Down -Duncan Barford

From occult author Duncan Barford comes The Going Down, a compelling and haunting esoteric novel about friendship, relationships, and the power of the underworld to heal.

When longtime friends Bailey and Steve perform a final ritual in a house they once shared, the dead and the underworld haunt their lives and challenge their friendship. And when Steve's girlfriend is drawn in, a dark secret binding Bailey finally comes to light.

Expertly written, The Going Down is not just a work of beautiful fiction but also a transformative work of magical dreaming.

“The Going Down is more than a novel: it is a necromantic spell, a feat of psychic surgery performed on a civilization, a bold affirmation of a world that enchantment never lost. Not “magic realism,” but the magic of the real, in prose as clear as ice, the better to see the depths beneath.”
