A haunted priest battles the Church’s darkest foes as his faith and sanity spiral into ruin.
“What they trust in is fragile; what they rely on is a spider’s web. They lean on the web, but it gives way; they cling to it, but it does not hold.”
When Lawrence Morgan was a boy, the fire stole everything he held dear. Raised in an orphanage, he sought refuge in books, but the shadows of his past never let go.
Now, as a man of God, he is drawn into a hidden war between a secret order of the Catholic Church and the forces of darkness. This decades-long crusade takes him from the comfort of his new life to the unforgiving deserts of war, hunting that which should not exist.
As the demonic sickness corrupts all it touches, the line between faith and doubt blurs. Lawrence never wanted this battle; evil never gave him a choice. Every encounter costs him a piece of himself. One can’t help but wonder…
What will remain?
