Synopsis:
Deadman enters a Mayan temple in Belize where the CIA section chief Grace Kasaba has a command post. Boston Brand is surprised when she can see him in spirit form. He tries to pass himself off as the spirit of Talaoc, but his trick fails because Kasaba is possessed by the real Mayan spirit. Deadman escapes, then tries to turn the soldiers under Kasaba's command against her. Seeing that the body he has chosen to possess is weak, Talaoc leaves Kasaba and manifests in corporeal form.
