The Godfrey Home for Demonic Children
Format:
Pre-order:
When she was eight years old Juliet was possessed by the same demon that claimed her parents' lives . . .
Twenty years later, a steely-eyed Juliet - determined to save other children from her fate - joins The Crucix, a secret sect whose members are demonically possessed exorcists. As an exorcist, Juliet travels the world ridding humans of the powerful (and often violent) demons who've possessed them. There are, however, a few who - like her - have been infected by particularly dangerous demons that are difficult or impossible to expel. These individuals are sent to The Godfrey Home for Demonically Afflicted Children.
It was here that Juliet grew up, mentored by the renowned Crucix exorcist Luther Godfrey. He taught Juliet everything she knows about exorcism, including the cardinal rule: that under no circumstances should an exorcist kill a child host.
Juliet’s loyalty to the Crucix creed is challenged when Luther Godfrey is savagely attacked by one of his own charges: Samuel, a young boy rumoured to be possessed by The Unnamed, a demon with the rare and extraordinary ability to control and kill other demons. As Luther’s life and soul hang in the balance, Juliet follows a string of gruesome killings and possessions on a harrowing journey to find and banish The Unnamed from the innocent boy who harbours it.
And Juliet isn’t the only one hunting Samuel. Other exorcists are after him. Their intention is not just to banish Samuel's demon but to brutally exorcise the boy and use the cataclysmic power of The Unnamed to rid the world of the demonic scourge once and for all.
Tempted by the prospect of a world without demons, but bound by guilt and Crucix creed, Juliet is forced to choose between the life of a small boy and the power of the demon within him . . .
