Victor Sells

Monica is Victor's wife. Harry recognizes that she was drawn into the investigation through fear and love for her children, and she knows about the danger associated with Victor and the approaching storm.

Victor is Billy’s father. As Victor becomes more dangerous and power-hungry, Monica fears the way he looks at the children and decides she must get them away from him.

Victor is Jenny’s father. Jenny remembers him as once being a good man but believes he has changed, and she fears what may happen as Dresden confronts him.

Victor recruits the Beckitts as financial backers, promising to help them take revenge on Johnny Marcone for their daughter. They trust him and provide money for his schemes.

Linda is part of the network that connects Victor to people for his rituals and drug operation. Monica says Jennifer and Linda knew the right people, and Linda introduced Victor to Marcone’s man.

Mrs. Beckitt and her husband take part in Victor’s lust-fueled ritual, generating energy for his spell. She later fights Dresden alongside Beckitt at the lake house.

Harry concludes that Gimpy has been passing information to the rival behind the ThreeEye operation, whom the narrative identifies as Victor Sells.

Victor summons the demon and attempts to bind it to his will, ordering it to kill Dresden. Dresden breaks Victor’s control, and the demon turns on him.

Harry is searching for Victor, whom he suspects may be involved in sorcery and the deaths of Tommy Tomm and Jennifer Stanton. Victor is absent from their encounters in these chapters, but Harry’s investigation increasingly points toward him.

Victor promises the Beckitts that he can help them exact vengeance on Marcone, making Marcone a target of the Beckitts’ planned retaliation.

Victor killed Jennifer after she threatened to expose him to the police and Johnny Marcone if he would not let Monica leave.

Victor’s magic kills Tommy, apparently in connection with the murder of Jennifer and the use of bodily samples or proximity during the lust rituals.
