SYNOPSIS
When Professor Harrison Standish, a bookish young
archeologist inadvertently stumbles upon an ancient burial chamber in Egypt, he
is baffled to find symbolism inside that would appear to date from two
different historical periods, thousands of years apart. Suspecting the tomb had
been tampered with at some point in the distant past, Professor Standish soon
discovers the skeletons of ten half-human/half-canine creatures lying in a far
corner of the chamber and his initial bafflement now turns to shock. What kind
of ancient madman would be conducting such a horrific experiment?
As Dr. Standish endeavors to explain this mystery over the
ensuing days, he happens upon a news report, suggesting that these same
grotesque, half-human/half-canine creatures have come to life in the remote
mountains of Wyoming and he is immediately on the next flight. By the time he
arrives in Wyoming, a World War II Nazi bomber has materialized out of the sky
and crashed off the coast of France and a Nazi general named Schmitz has
stumbled into the 21st century, leaving behind evidence of his presence in
Professor Standish's ancient burial chamber back in Egypt, all of which sets
the stage for a rollicking, nonstop, modern day fantasy/sci-fi adventure.
The cast of characters in Purgatory: Origins includes
Rachael, a pesky, auburn haired New York magazine correspondent, who is known
equally for her ability to sink her teeth into a story and her unwillingness to
let it go, Jason Kendall, an escaped rapist and killer who falls hard for
Rachael when they cross paths and turns out to have a past with our half human
creatures, and Harper, the ex-special forces FBI agent, whose primary goal is
finding Jason Kendall, getting him back behind bars and keeping him there for
the rest of his life but soon finds himself sucked into this mystery woven of
ancient symbolism, old Nazi war criminals and otherworldly creatures.
