Young poetess Rose Elliot buys a book from a local antique dealer, a diary in Latin of an architect, E. Varelli.

Mark's friend Sara reads her letter, which he left behind in class, and discovers the school is run by the Mater Lacrimarum, and is killed for this knowledge. The house of Mater Suspiriorum has already been destroyed, and by the time Mark arrives in New York City, he is investigating his sister's murder.
