Shock Talk The Exorcist Files
by Bob Larson
Category: Fiction

The engaging smile and easy manner of Billy McBride, TV talk show host, belies the deep pain he carries from childhood-being abandoned by his father. This old but still raw pain leaves Billy vulnerable to the life situation of show guest Allison Owens. Allison and her mother, Jenny, have come on the show desperately hoping to encounter some healing for their disintegrating relationship. Instead, the show erupts into unexpected chaos, as Allison still has wounds on her wrists from a recent suicide attempt. Billy attempts to help Allison, eventually resorting to exorcism for both of them. The plot takes many twists and turns, but results in each character finding spiritual freedom from pain in the past.
