Book Synopsis

Rome's chief exorcist tells of his many experiences as an exorcist doing battle with Satan, allowing the reader to witness what an exorcist sees and does. He shows how real the devil is, and the great power of evil that Satan has, and how that evil is conquered only by the power of Christ. This gripping story, a European best-seller, is the most thorough work available on exorcism.
