No crosses. No holy water. No Latin. Just white shirts and black ties...

When Maddie Smith, a single Mormon mother, receives a foreclosure notice, she begins looking for a new home. While her sons Brandon and David stay home, Maddie explores an old sandstone house in Blackhawk, Utah. The house, however, has never really been empty. There's a painting Maddie shouldn't have seen and something else alive in the house. Something that goes home with her.

Mormons don't practice exorcisms like the Catholics do, but Maddie's bishop, Blaine Griffen, and his former mission companion, Rey Montoya, saw something like this in 1973. Forty-five years ago, they failed to save a young woman from Hell. Now, they have a second chance.

The strength of a single mother tested, the faith of devoted authorities challenged, the love of sons for their mothers confronted. And a biblical command to TELL NO MAN what has occurred, lest they not believe.
