Add to basketPaperback. When Specialist Patrick Sullivan is killed in Mosul, a relic carried home doesn't stop fighting. Weeks later in Boston, fourteen-year-old Ashlyn wakes with phrases of Latin on her tongue and during Mass at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross, she speaks with a voice that isn't her own.Father Michael Donnelly has buried more prayers than he's seen answered. Called to the Sullivans' home, he finds a family cracking under grief, and something that watches from the dark. Whispers inside the Church call it the Umbra Dei, the Shadow of God: a presence that feeds on doubt and survives wherever faith has thinned. Sister Helena is sent from Rome to assist. Reluctantly, Father Michael and Sister Helena follow a trail through Boston to a monastery in Vermont, for documents the Vatican prefers to forget and a reliquary that never should have come home from the Nineveh Plains. As Ashlyn's manifestations escalate, Father Michael and Sister Helena must decide whether obedience or courage will save a life.DELIVER US FROM EVIL is a relentless supernatural thriller about a family under siege, a priest out of answers, and a city where the light doesn't quite reach. Perfect for readers who enjoy possession horror with investigative edges, church lore and hidden archives, and high-tension hauntings grounded in real places and grief.Faith is a weapon. Doubt is the doorway. And once opened, some doors will not close by themselves.Some wars don't end. They come home. This item is printed on demand.
