After healthy young Debra Miller dies giving birth, guilt-ridden Dr. David Monroe's secret investigation uncovers a terrifying world where madness and violence reign.

Our deepest, darkest dreams of hell on earth are about to become reality. With the help of a disillusioned priest, Monroe has to confront the never-ending battle between good and evil lurking in the human mind and find those who would do anything, no matter how ruthless, to fulfill their fanatic religious beliefs—before his blood is sacrificed next.
