Spirit Calculandum

About

 Abigail Cornell is working on her math-magic doctorate, which really means having to take side jobs to pay the bills. Then an unusual client reaches out and the army needs her help. Money is on the table.

The device buried under the sands of Egypt was never meant to be found. Secured by a six-degree lock, it was the most complex seal anyone had ever seen before. Someone had tried. They got three of them right and didn't survive to try a second time.

The Egyptian government wants nothing more than to reseal the locks, bury it, and never see the thing again. For this they need the best math-magical expert they can find.

Abigail joins with the army, who has called in the big guns--Jonathan Cognitor, father of the new merlin and the smartest man on the planet. His apprentice, Jonnie Puliver is not only part of the team, but in desperate need of a guiding hand. Doctor Cognitor thinks Abigail can be that hand. But first, they have to reseal the locks so that whatever is beyond doesn’t find a way out.
