The Church is losing its grip; not only are the heresies raging out of control, but more and more priests are speaking out against the Roman Church... people are no longer content with their lot in life; they have grown ambitious and disruptive. The order of the world is dissolving into chaos.
Champion of the church, Thomas Neville, faces his own crisis as he begins to question his faith. Gathering information for the Church, he meets the heretic priest John Wycliffe and the peasant rebel Wat Tyler. He suspects that they are shape-shifting demons, yet cannot help but agree with their criticisms of the traditional structures of society and of the Church itself.
Neville's soul has become the ultimate battleground.
The choices he makes will dictate the final outcome of the battle between the forces of good, and those of evil.
