When tragedy strikes the Jacobs family, this charismatic preacher curses God, mocks all religious belief, and is banished from the shocked town. Jamie has demons of his own. In his mid-thirties — addicted to heroin, stranded, desperate — Jamie meets Charles Jacobs again, and their bond becomes a pact beyond even the Devil’s devising.
