Product Description
New York Times bestselling author Jeff Rovin has held readers in breathless suspense with his Tom Clancy's Op-Center novels, which have addressed questions of good and evil in our times. Now, Rovin confronts the question of good and evil on the ultimate battleground. A human soul hangs in the balance, and thousands of years of religious teachings depict only the beginning of the fight for dominion over man. Psychologist Sarah Lynch is stunned when one of her young patients hangs himself. Evidence reveals that Fredric had become a Satanist. Intending to solve the puzzle of Fredric's death, Sarah attempts to conjure the devil - surely then she will understand what the teenager was thinking. Sarah knows that belief in God and the Devil is a construct of the human mind and that people contain within them both good and evil. Sarah herself lost her faith more than a decade ago, during a personal crisis. But she is dedicated to giving others the help she did not receive. Even the nun who is Sarah's best friend cannot break through Sarah's shield of cynicism. But Satan can. Conjured as an experiment, the Devil himself rises in Sarah's office. Sometimes a being of dark smoke and sometimes a creature of all-too-perfect, seductive flesh, Satan claims that only by following him can people find real happiness. In the Devil's theology, God is a jealous bully. Slowly, Sarah comes to believe him. She forgets that Satan is the Master of Lies.
