Father Isaias Flores may not have much, but he has his faith-and his dear friend Hector to keep him anchored when he is mired in self-doubt. But when Hector's daughter, Violet, comes to Isaias with concerns that her father is acting strangely, Isaias's doubts only increase, now with no one to keep him steadfast. For Hector seems to be possessed by something darker than even the traumas of the past, and Violet has nowhere else to turn to save her only family.

This is a problem that may require divine intervention-the rites of exorcism.

Unsure of his place in the church, doubting his gifts from God, and struggling to make sense of his feelings for the man he had thought was only a friend, Isaias isn't sure if he is strong enough to save anyone's soul from damnation.

For what can one man do against the torments of Hell?
