What they share

What The Believers is
Manhattan. Summer. Distant sirens. Widowed psychologist Cal Jamison relocates with his son, only to find himself consulting on occult-tinged killings. The trail leads toward dark money and darker magic. Schlesinger’s late-period foray into occult thriller is worth a look.
