Pardoned convict Thomas Gunson knows the way through the wilderness and agrees to guide the faithful on a circuit of their struggling chapels, though he fears the company of people now that he's out of his shackles. Irish émigré Oona Farry, recruited as a candlemaker, resents the devotion of the women during their ecstatic praising, convinced that God has abandoned her for her lustful secrets. Even righteous hosts Jacob and Anne Temple harbor transgressions they dare not voice. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e But when Californian preacher Charisma Groom stirs up unbridled repentance during a watchnight mass on the edge of wild country, illicit sex and sudden death come to light. The congregation is ordered to hunt the devil through the ancient Fish River Caves, a dangerous underworld where raptures more powerful than faith are awakened. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e With nothing but his fledgling moral compass, Muncey must see through blind faith to uncover which member of the flock is a callous killer. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This is a bold reimagining of the untold story of the Methodist settlers who colonized Australia’s renowned Jenolan Caves during the Frontier Wars.","brand":"Histria Fiction","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48012848234751,"sku":"9781592115709","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781592115709_s600x595.jpg?v=1779893317","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781592115709","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
