The Satanic Chapel: The Devil does not discriminate. A soul is a soul no matter the colour of skin or religion. A Betty Buick Tale. by Bob Price

The Devil doesn’t discriminate. Skin colour, religion or anything else, they’re superfluous. A soul is a soul and he wants them all. For thousands of years men and women who worship the Devil sought to control him to help them dominate the Earth. Trouble is the Devil has his own agenda and knows exactly what people are about. Yet even in the twenty first century they continue to try ignoring the failures of the past at their peril. Members of The Satanic Chapel had reached a point of self-confidence when they too felt ready to take the next step. An invitation to the Devil himself to visit and help them rule the world of humans. It was an ambitious plan that was years in the making and now it was finally ready and wheels within wheels were moving to make it a reality. When odd things happen different police units are employed to investigate. After authority figures were reported missing a standard investigation unit became employed to find them. A less than standard unit called Irregular Missing Persons (IMP) also received instructions to investigate. Few outside IMP had even heard of them and so it was that the lead officer Superintendent Frank Marshal encountered Superintendent Betty Buick from IMP for the first time. Buick’s instructions to take a purely advisory role during the investigation led by Marshal was less than ideal, but with a new boss who appeared to detest the very thought of IMP:she was constrained to play tag, something she never did that well. If, as Buick suspected, that the supernatural was somehow involved she determined it wouldn’t be long before IMP was called upon to do more than simply advise. She wasn’t wrong.
