A single mistake bound him to a killer. A dark ritual will force him to pay the price.
When attorney Dean Quinlan is drawn out into the freezing night, he expects a crisis—not a nightmare. Plunged into a world of ancient curses, occult signatures, and desecrated bodies, he finds himself acting as the unwilling herald for a serial killer obsessed with Milton, Dante, and the texts of the Ars Goetia.
A greedy banker, an apostate, a defrocked priest, and an innocent woman. All systematically collected to complete a profane theatrical rite. As a brilliant ex-cop hunts the killer from the fringes, Dean realizes he is the central piece in this apocalyptic drama. The killer knows Dean's darkest secrets, and he demands an unburdening of the soul.
Live before the world.
