Salvation is a fast-paced book of horror garunteed to raise the
hairs on the back of the neck. It's style has been compared to the
works of Stephen King and Dean Koontz. Salvation begins with a
frantic phone call to Father Brian Halloway from Eric Parkins, a
parishioner in his church, who is desperate to find answers to his
wife's strange behavior following the death of her mother. It seems
to Halloway that the woman is simply having difficulty coping with
her grief, and nothing seems out of the ordinary. Until he is told
about the "thing" in the basement. And how Sylvia changes after
nightfall. It is then, the priest begins to worry. After witnessing
Sylvia's disturbing and violent behavior for himself, Halloway
comes to the conclusion that something has gone horribly wrong at
1312 Lafayette Drive. Fearing for the safety of the couple,
Halloway enlists the help of his longtime friend and fellow priest
Father Michael Constantine, a priest chosen to fight the deadliest
of wars, and the keeper of New York Dioceses' darkest secret. It is
then the dark war begins. Constantine, joined by Father James
Connelly, a young priest eager to prove himself to his mentor,
along with Halloway, Sylvia's husband, and her brother, Mark
Barnett, a doctor who is hiding his own dangerous secret set out to
engage the invading entity. The men quickly come face to face with
a savage, brutal being that snakes its way into the darkest depths
of their psyches in its unyielding and vicious attempts to destroy
them and all who participate in its "game." The book climaxes with
the entrance of Arandavius, a dark, tragic figure, fallen with
Lucifer after The Great War. A fallen angel who walks the earth and
claims hismission is to send the demon back to its "Realm." A being
Constantine knows has held one title since his expulsion.
Arandavius: The Overlord of Legion. Constantine finds himself
trying to save a woman who is now caught in the middle of a vicious
game of cat-and-mouse between two demons-one, a brutal, sadistic
being who holds the life and soul of its victim in its clutches-the
other, the most savage and merciless of Legion's warriors. A game
both beings are willing to play out to its explosive and bloody
end. Welcome to darkness. Welcome.to the game.
