prologue
"THE weather in the far north of Ireland will continue unsettled for at least the next
twenty-four hours," came the crackly voice of the radio weatherman. "… occasional

outbreaks of rain and northeasterly winds gusting up to forty knots…"
The rest of the marine forecast dissolved in a hiss of static that was lost in the roar
of twin Yamaha outboards and the slap of water against black and orange sponsons
as the big inflatable boat punched through the waves off the north coast of
Donegal. Irish Fisheries Officer Mick Scanlan grimaced as he scanned ahead with a
pair of powerful marine binoculars, one arm looped through the boat's A-frame to
brace himself. Amidships, sitting astride the pillion seat behind the control console,
his partner, Lorcan O'Haverty, throttled back slightly to compensate for the wave
chop.
The sky overhead was a dirty shade of grey, looking more like February than early
May, and the two officers were dressed for weather. With their bright orange crash
helmets and regulation life-vests, both men wore the distinctive orange-and-black
survival suits called Polar Bears that could keep a man alive for several days in
these waters, whose winter temperature often dipped to near-Arctic levels. Even in
May, though the water had begun to warm, hail and sleet might accompany the
squalls and storms so prevalent in this area. To be caught out unprepared could be
fatal.
Not that today was too bad, as days went in early May. The wind was brisk, but the
sun looked poised to break through the cloud cover for at least a little while. A
hundred yards off to port, the outbound tide was peeling back on itself lethargically
from the sheer base of a long line of sea-cliffs, leaving the exposed rock-faces
festooned with streamers of stranded kelp.
Scanlan shifted his weight and continued to scan. Off to the seaward side,
shadowed and uncertain under the receding tidewash, the dark lurk of submarine
rocks posed a threat to conventional craft venturing in this close, but the rigid
inflatable boats used by the Irish Department of the Marine drew only inches of
water, and had proven highly effective for this kind of patrol. Weighing hardly more
than a ton, a six-meter boat like this one could be trailered where needed and
launched within minutes - a godsend for men like Scan-Ian and O'Haverty, charged
with protecting the coastal fishing rights of a country heavily dependent upon its
maritime industries. While much of their routine work was done ashore - either
shuffling reports in the local fisheries office or else conducting routine inspections on
the docksides of fishing ports from Inishfree to Malin Head - field investigations
were not at all uncommon.
This morning they had launched from Downies to check a report of illegal fixed nets
in the area. Their backup boat had developed engine trouble and would try to catch
up later, but their land-based backup would be shadowing them from the shore in a
Land Rover, also linked by radio. Scanlan had spotted him as they passed

Dunfanaghy, and expected to pick him up again after they rounded Horn Head.
The radio chatter ebbed and flowed against the background bluster of wind and
waves, and Scanlan automatically scanned the shoreline as O'Haverty skipped their
nimble craft past a succession of small inlets gouged out of the coastline by the
action of the North Atlantic tides. But as O'Haverty brought the boat around the
point of the headland, a sudden and unexpected stretch of calm water stretched
before them along a narrow crescent of sandy beach adjacent to the rock cliffs.
Taking closer notice now, Scanlan saw that the outbound swells were coated with
the greasy rainbow film of spilled oil.
"Uh-oh," O'Haverty said, glancing back at him.
"Yeah, I see it." Scanlan swung his binoculars along the sweep of shoreline and
adjusted the focus. "We'd better have a closer look."
As O'Haverty nosed the boat toward the beach, the slick became visible as a V-
shaped stain fanning out across the flattened waves, apparently coming from a
waterline cleft in the base of the cliffs that marked the western end of the beach.
"Looks like it's coming from those rocks up ahead," O'Haverty said.
"Yeah." Scanlan lowered his binoculars for a few seconds to peer with unassisted
sight, then resumed his study. "I don't see any signs of a wreck, though. Maybe an
oil barrel's gotten washed against the rocks and broke open. Let's go in, and I'll
check it out."
Without comment, O'Haverty brought the boat around with a spin of the wheel and
gave a brief rev to the engines to propel them in toward the shore while Scanlan
shed his binoculars and helmet and moved into the bow, ruffling a hand through
sandy hair. As soon as the boat's snub nose nudged sandy bottom, Scanlan threw a
leg over the side and stepped onto the sand and shingle, grabbing an anchor and
coil of line. Sea water washed and tugged at the legs of his survival suit until he
won free of the retreating surf and bent to set the anchor behind a cluster of rocks
a few yards higher on the beach. Behind him, O'Haverty pulled up the slack and
snubbed it off.
"We'd better make this quick," O'Haverty called, shouting to make himself heard
above the boom of the surf. "Tide'11 be turning soon."
Grinning, Scanlan gave his partner a thumbs-up sign and turned to begin trudging
toward the promontory. The tide-lines to his left suggested that the strip of beach
was only exposed to view at low tide - which explained why he did not remember
having seen it before, even though he and O'Haverty had passed this headland
many times on routine patrol. He was halfway to the base of the cliffs, heading for
the area from which the oil seemed to have come, when a flicker of color and
movement drew his gaze upward.

Katherine Kurtz - Adept 04 - Dagger Magic.html
About halfway up the cliff-face, a small flurry of sea gulls exploded into flight from
the mouth of a jagged fissure in the rocks. That alone was hardly surprising, but as
the birds wheeled away screeching, a slight, shaven-headed figure in flowing orange
robes suddenly appeared from behind them.
The sight was startling enough to bring Scanlan up short, to send him scuttling into
the shadow of the cliff-face to his left - though if the man looked down, he was sure
to notice the bright orange upper half of Scanlan's survival suit. Scan-Ian could not
have said why it seemed important that the man not see him. Even as he craned to
get a cautious better look, hardly able to believe his eyes, a second man emerged
from the fissure's mouth, a slightly more wizened version of the first. Both were
well past middle age, and obviously of Oriental extraction.
What the hell? Scanlan thought.
Their attire reminded him of the Hare Krishna votaries he had seen now and again
in Dublin and London, handing out flowers and pamphlets on street corners or
dancing and singing in the streets - except that these two were much older than the
usual Hare Krishna, and far less scruffy-looking. Part of the difference lay in the
high-collared black tunics they wore beneath the saffron-orange outer robes, almost
like a priest's cassock - a feature that Scanlan couldn't recall ever seeing before.
But that sartorial difference paled to insignificance before the incongruity of anyone
so garbed being present on this bleak, windswept stretch of Donegal coast.
The two glanced back into the darkness of the cave and conferred briefly, whatever
words they spoke whisked away in the wind and the boom of the surf, then moved
off along a ledge that slanted away toward the landward summit of the cliff. As they
disappeared behind a screen of boulders, they seemed not to have noticed that they
were being observed from shore and boat.
Scanlan backed away toward the water's edge, trying to discover where the pair
might have gone, but he could see no trace of them. More mystified than ever, he
shifted his puzzled gaze back to the mouth of the cave. What could they have been
doing in there?
Glancing back at O'Haverty, who lifted both arms in an exaggerated shrugging
motion, Scanlan waved a hand at his partner in a gesture to stand by, and started
up the rocks. He unzipped the neck of his survival suit as he climbed, reaching
inside for the small but powerful emergency torch he always carried. The cave
warranted a quick look.
He gained the ledge without mishap, sidling carefully along it till he reached the
narrow cave mouth. After a last glance over his shoulder to assure himself that
O'Haverty was still watching from the boat - and scanning the cliffs beyond with the
binoculars - Scanlan ducked into the opening and switched on his torch, poking the
file:///J|/sci-fi/Nieuwe%20map/Katherine%20Kurtz%20-%20Adept%2004%20-%20Dagger%20Magic.html (5 of 278)16-2-2006 15:42:19

powerful beam back into the darkness.
The cave appeared to extend some distance into the cliff-face. The dank iodine-tang
of the seashore prickled at his nostrils as he started edging forward, scything the
beam of the torch before him as his eyes began to adjust to the darkness. A dozen
cautious steps took him to the brink of deeper darkness, where his torch probed out
across the echoing vault of a much larger cavern.
The vaulted expanse was not wholly dark. Here and there pale lances of daylight
pierced the shadows, filtering down through scattered chinks in the roof and the
seaward wall. The cave alone was unusual enough, but not far below, the sweep of
his torch and the fugitive glimmers of daylight picked out the dark, deadly outline of
a great torpedo shape slumbering in the gloom, with a more angular shape
thrusting upward from the center. It almost looked like - good Lord, could it be? - a
beached submarine!
"Jayzus, Mary, and Joseph!" Scanlan muttered under his breath.
His words echoed in the confines of the sea cave like an untimely intrusion in the
hush of some vast cathedral. He fell silent as he played his torch along the length of
the thing, noting the faint gurgle of water stirring sluggishly about its armor-plated
flanks. The sound suggested that the cave itself was accessible to the tides from
outside, but he could see no other openings above ground save the one through
which he himself had just come. Nor could he make out any underwater glow that
might indicate a passage below the waterline to the sea beyond.
"Jayzus," he breathed, more softly this time. It was difficult to make any very
accurate estimate of the sub's size, but he guessed she must be close to two
hundred feet long, maybe more. She looked like all the photos his father had shown
him of German U-boats he had helped to sink during the Second World War, when
he served on a British frigate. The lines of her were right, from the graceful, deadly
bow, with its jag-toothed net-cutter and lethal torpedo tubes, to the stubby conning
tower and snorkel, to the deck guns mounted fore and aft. And just readable, as he
played his torch across the slight curve of the conning tower, was the white-painted
designation 636.
U-636. He wondered how she had come to rest here. What little he could see of her
did not appear to be damaged. And she must have been lying here in secret for
nearly half a century.
Suddenly avid to have a closer look, Scanlan hunkered down and flicked his torch
over the rocks below, seeking a way down. A narrow ridge meandered gently along
the side, slick with sea wrack but perhaps rendered less treacherous by a profusion
of barnacles. A series of outcroppings presented him with a ready-made set of
stepping places and handholds, and should bring him within a few feet of the
file:///J|/sci-fi/Nieuwe%20map/Katherine%20Kurtz%20-%20Adept%2004%20-%20Dagger%20Magic.html (6 of 278)16-2-2006 15:42:19

foredeck.
Exhilarated at the prospect of exploring the vessel, he hooked his torch to a clip on
his life-vest and began his descent toward the cavern's watery floor. The air in the
cavern was moist and heavy, the tang of brine laced with a musky hint of
something else that reminded Scanlan curiously of church incense. The water
lapping along the hull looked to be perhaps waist-deep. He was not quite sure
whether the tide had turned yet, but he should have a few minutes in reasonable
safety.
He reached the bottom of the cavern without mishap and sprang lightly to the sub's
foredeck, unclipping his torch to play it before him as he started aft. He brushed
one hand along the rusted length of the sub's big 3.5-inch deck gun just before he
skirted the conning tower, again shining the torch on the painted numbers, 636.
The ladder going up into the back of the conning tower was heavily rusted, but it
looked sound enough - and was.
He climbed carefully, lest he cut his hands or damage his suit, and emerged on the
command bridge. Forward, the wheel that dogged down the hatch drew him almost
irresistibly, but when he tried to shift it, it stubbornly resisted his efforts.
"Shit," Scanlan muttered. Though he had not really expected it to open, he still was
disappointed. Panting a little from the exertion, he shone his torch around the inside
of the conning tower again and noticed something he had missed in his first
inspection: an irregular grey packet about the size of his two hands, lashed to the
inside of the nearest bulkhead by grey webbing straps.
The straps fell to bits as he tried to loose the buckles. The packet itself was
sheathed in a double layer of oilskin, mildewed and brittle with age, that cracked
and all but disintegrated as he peeled it back to expose a folded bundle of scarlet
material. It was musty and damp, but when Scanlan gingerly shook it out, the mass
of red became a German Kriegsmarine flag - red and black and white.
He caught his breath at the sight of it - once-fine scarlet wool boldly ensigned with
the distinctive black cross of old Germany behind the newer white roundel and black
swastika of the Third Reich. He almost dropped it in sheer reflex, for the
associations of evil that it held.
Again he found himself wondering what might have brought U-636 to her present
resting place. His first thought had been that her captain must have been using this
cave as a base from which to sally forth and harry Allied shipping. That seemed
unlikely, though, for he could not imagine that the cave had ever offered safe
access to and from the outside.
Had she fled here for sanctuary, then, pursued by her enemies? Again, how? He
recalled hearing how stragglers from North Atlantic wolf packs sometimes had taken
file:///J|/sci-fi/Nieuwe%20map/Katherine%20Kurtz%20-%20Adept%2004%20-%20Dagger%20Magic.html (7 of 278)16-2-2006 15:42:19

refuge in the depths of Tory Sound, not far away, though far more subs had ended
up on the bottom than had escaped. He had even heard tell of a German sub from
the First World War, said to lie on the floor of Donegal Bay, farther south. In those
days, German submarines had used mercury for ballast - lots of it. There was talk
of trying to salvage that ballast, for mercury in such quantities was extremely
valuable; and such a salvage might also avert a later rupture, with its
accompanying ecological implications.
Belatedly, he remembered the oil slick he had seen from outside. Surely this was its
source. Had the sub limped here damaged, then? Shining his torch along her off
side, he could see nothing overt, but who knew what lay below the waterline? More
probably, however, the slick he had seen could be attributed to a leak in one or
more of the fuel tanks, their fabric failing at last after five decades of progressive
deterioration.
But why had she been beached here in the first place, and how? More mysterious
still, now that Scanlan stopped to think about it, was the matter of the two Hare
Krishna types he had seen emerging from the cave. Recalling them now, he
wondered what possible connection such individuals could have with a German
submarine. What were they even doing in this part of the world? - in Ireland, of all
places. Had they stumbled across the cavern purely by chance? Somehow Scanlan
doubted it.
A gurgling sound like the lapping of waves recalled Scanlan from his speculation,
and he flashed his torch over the side again. The tide had turned. The water level in
the cavern was rising - further confirmation that there must be an underwater
channel leading to the outside. He had better get out of here, if he didn't want to
get trapped or maybe even drowned.
Clipping the torch to his vest again, Scanlan set about refolding the flag. He was
well aware that the sub's presence would have to be reported to the proper
authorities. After this long, her salvage value was probably nil, but if she still held
torpedoes, there was no telling how unstable they might have become in half a
century. And there was the oil-spill question; who knew how much fuel might still
reside in her tanks, set to trigger yet another ecological disaster?
In the meantime, however, there was no reason why Scanlan should not take the
flag for himself as a souvenir. Stuffing it into the front of his survival suit, up under
his life-vest, he zipped up again, then swung himself down out of the conning tower
and set about retracing his route to the exit.
The grey light of the overcast day seemed glaringly bright after the dimness of the
cavern's interior, even though a heavy fog bank had begun to roll in with the
incoming tide.
file:///J|/sci-fi/Nieuwe%20map/Katherine%20Kurtz%20-%20Adept%2004%20-%20Dagger%20Magic.html (8 of 278)16-2-2006 15:42:19
Katherine Kurtz - Adept 04 - Dagger Magic.html
Scanlan emerged squinting from the cave and fetched up short as his half-dazzled
gaze picked up a blur of bright orange out on the ledge a dozen yards to the
landward side of the cave entrance.
Even as Scanlan gasped, the blur resolved itself into one of the Hare Krishnas - or
maybe he was some sort of Oriental monk, come to think of it - gazing expectantly
in his direction. Startled, Scanlan looked around for the second one and spotted him
down on the beach below, standing ankle-deep in the water right next to the boat,
a brighter orange against the deeper shade of the inflatable craft. He could not see
O'Haverty.
"Hey, what are you doing?" he shouted, gesturing with his torch toward the man in
the water. "Lorcan, where are you?"
O'Haverty did not answer, but the second monk glanced up at him with placid
indifference. Only then did Scanlan realize that both men were holding odd-looking
daggers with heavy, triple-edged blades, perhaps a foot long overall. The weapons
looked dull and clumsy, hardly capable of inflicting much damage unless one were
hit over the head with the pommel, but Scanlan found himself gripping his torch
more tightly, wishing it were bigger, heavier. He had never heard of Hare Krishnas
being other than peaceable and nonviolent, but there was something not right
about these two. And where was O'Haverty?
Almost without realizing what he was doing, Scanlan began to back away from the
nearer monk. As he did so, the one down on the beach thrust his dagger into his
belt and jerked loose the anchor that was holding the boat in place, beginning to
gather in the mooring line. His movement gave Scanlan a clearer look at the interior
of the boat - and the crumpled splash of black and brighter orange lying in the
stern, awash in a sea of crimson.
"Lorcan?" Scanlan whispered, the color draining from his face.
The monk in the water paid him no heed, merely continuing to coil the mooring line.
The fog bank swallowed up the sun in that instant, and the temperature seemed to
drop by at least twenty degrees.
Before Scanlan could summon the will to move, to do something, the monk on the
ledge turned his impassive gaze back to the cave from which Scanlan had just
emerged and clasped the hilt of his dagger between his palms, point downward.
Then, as the thin lips began to move silently, the agile hands began rolling the hilt
of the dagger between the palms, the black eyes quickly losing focus and rolling
back in the hairless head. As Scanlan edged away from the man, trying to decide
which one was the greater threat, the monk on the beach tossed the anchor into
the bow of the boat and moved back amidships. His expression, as he turned his
face toward Scanlan, was one of mild reproof.
file:///J|/sci-fi/Nieuwe%20map/Katherine%20Kurtz%20-%20Adept%2004%20-%20Dagger%20Magic.html (9 of 278)16-2-2006 15:42:19
Katherine Kurtz - Adept 04 - Dagger Magic.html
"Curiosity can be very costly," he announced, in heavily accented English.
He must have done something to the boat's controls then, for the engines suddenly
roared to life, the bow swung around, and the boat began heading away from the
shore.
"Hey!" Scanlan shouted, starting to skitter down the ledge in pursuit.
Even as he said it, already aware that he had no chance of catching the retreating
boat, the monk up on the ledge raised the point of his dagger toward the entrance
to the cave, continuing to roll the hilt between his palms - and suddenly released
the weapon.
It sprang from between his hands, launching itself through the air like a tiny guided
missile to strike the top of the cave opening with explosive force. With a crack like a
thunderclap, the rock above the opening gave way, raining down rubble to bury the
passageway under a descending weight of earth. Within a matter of seconds, the
cave mouth had vanished, erased under tons of broken stone.
The concussion staggered Scanlan to his knees. Now nearly to the beach, he
scrambled up and wheeled around in time to see the strange dagger come flashing
back to its owner's hand like a boomerang.
Scanlan's eyes flew wide in blank incredulity. Even as his mind groped in vain for a
logical explanation for what he had just witnessed, he realized that the second
monk now was rolling his dagger the same way the first had done - except that its
point was directed right at Scanlan!
The sight made Scanlan's blood run cold. Backing off a few steps in horror, he
turned to bolt for the imagined safety of a tumbled ridge of boulders, skirting close
to the edge of the cliff-face. A lightning scramble up over the rocks took him some
distance above the level of the beach. But before he could take shelter behind any
of the outcroppings, the monk on the beach released his dagger.
Running for his life, Scanlan had no further warning before the blade thudded home
between his shoulder blades, piercing to the hilt. The pain transfixed him as he
screamed and staggered, his torch flying from his hand as he toppled forward into
the sea. His head cracked against a rock enroute and he knew no more. Where he
landed, the water for an instant was dyed crimson, but then the surf took
command, dispelling the red as it rolled his body to and fro.
For a moment the monk on the beach gazed impassively at the tumbled form, at
the occasional glimpse of the dagger's hilt protruding from the bright orange of his
victim's survival suit - which would not permit its wearer to survive this assault, no
matter its sophistication. When the monk raised his hand in a gesture of summons,
the dagger pulled itself free with a slight shudder and snapped back to the
summoner's hand like the flick of an adder's tongue. Briefly the dagger pointed
