The Exorcist Code

A new kind of evil calls for a new kind of exorcist. A diabolical serial killer is hunting exorcists. Only the Vatican’s secret weapon can stop him—if it doesn’t destroy them first. From the bestselling author of The Paranormalist series comes a terrifying new tale of demonic possession and supernatural horror. Exorcists are being brutally murdered across Europe, victims of a diabolical killer with an unholy agenda. In response, the Vatican pairs Father Callum—their most battle-hardened exorcist—with Michael, a weapon created for one purpose: destroying evil. An exorcist like no other—immune to possession, incorruptible, and perhaps not entirely human. Their hunt leads them to a remote Italian village, where the Thompson family’s new home has become a battleground of the damned. Their teenage daughter is under siege, her body and soul twisted by a force beyond comprehension. But this is no ordinary demon. The malevolent entity stalking them is evolving—growing stronger with each encounter. It has already begun rewriting the rules of possession and claiming new, terrifying abilities. As the darkness targets Michael, the Vatican must confront a chilling possibility: that their only hope of stopping this evil may also carry within him the seed of their destruction. Because what was created to cast out the Devil... might one day replace him. Echoing the dread of The Exorcist and The Omen and the supernatural tension of The Conjuring and The Amityville Horror, The Exorcist Code is a pulse-pounding psychological horror thriller perfect for fans of demonic mysteries, haunted house ghost suspense, and exorcism horror.
