The village has fallen into the hands of the Devil, while in the grip of a dangerous, cultish priest who claims that God is dead. </p><p>Margaux, a Moorish assassin, traumatized by a violent life and haunted by demons, seeks a deadly revenge for what men did to her. She is tasked by the Church to restore the Faith in the mountain, and make all signs of heresy disappear before it gets to the ears of the world. </p><p>She will lead Ageran, a former knight crusader, and Nortimer, a zealous priest, fascinated by witchcraft, paganism and occultism, down a very dangerous path, facing the darkest aspects of mankind and unravelling a plot that could only have been inspired by the Devil Himself.</p>
