“I believe in a higher law. I believe in true justice.”

After spending a month in jail at the age of 19, George Barnaby felt compelled to become a lawyer. He found great success and notoriety in his career, and as retirement approached he made plans to sail around the world with his wife Maria. On the eve of his retirement, however, his home was attacked and Maria was murdered by cultists. Now, with a lifetime of wealth and contacts at his back, George has tracked the culprits to the city of Arkham, vowing to bring them to justice for their hideous crimes.
