About “The Human Chord”
The book centers on Robert Spinrobin, who answers an advertisement for a secretarial assistant from Philip Skale, a retired clergyman. Skale has assembled four individuals—himself, Spinrobin, Mrs. Mawle, and Skale's niece Miriam—to form a human chord of four voices, believing that the harmonized utterance of a sacred name could unlock the secrets of life and death, though the potential for catastrophic failure looms.
