Description: "Part of a secret order within the Vatican, [Father Antonio Molinari] is sent to investigate and debunk supernatural events. A case of possession brings him to the French countryside, where two local clergy...claim to have captured a vampire, and beg his expertise in helping them study the fiend. But when their monster turns out to be a little girl, cursed to spend eternity hiding from the sun, he cannot bring himself to destroy her. The priests, mistaking his compassion for diabolism, panic and his efforts to protect an innocent child prove fatal. He awakes caught between light and darkness..."--from page [4] of cover.
