Kevin Callan is running away but the past keeps catching up with him. That's the price he has to pay for using the occult to get sexual kicks while manipulating everyone around him. Sometimes Callan claims to be the victim of a state-sponsored mind control programme, at others, the man in charge of the whole operation. The thing is, Callan has a thousand different identities, and a range of London apartments, disciples, lovers, and possibly murder victims to go with the lifestyle. Come Before Christ and Murder Love is a tale of mental disorder, magic, London food, thought control and human sacrifice. Stewart Home's outrageous new novel explores sex and the occult both as ideologies and ways of organizing 'knowledge'.
