Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Door into Infinity" by Edmond Hamilton is a science fiction novella published as part of "Weird Tales" in the mid-20th century. The story explores themes of the mysterious and the unknown, centering on a secret society known as the Brotherhood of the Door which conducts sinister rituals involving a portal to another universe. The narrative combines elements of horror and adventure as it follows the protagonist's quest to rescue his wife from this ominous organization. The plot follows Paul Ennis, whose newlywed wife, Ruth, is kidnapped by the Brotherhood of the Door soon after their arrival in London. Ennis teams up with Inspector Pierce Campbell, a detective familiar with the Brotherhood's malevolent activities. They embark on a harrowing journey to locate the hidden lair of the Brotherhood, culminating in a dramatic confrontation during a sacrificial ceremony meant to open a portal to another universe. As Ennis fights to rescue Ruth, they discover the true horror of the "Door"—a gateway to an alien realm inhabited by indescribable entities.
