Sister Irene, now living under a borrowed name in a remote Italian convent, still wakes with the phantom scent of burning incense and the sound of a demon’s laughter in her ears. She prays constantly, but peace eludes her. She knows Valak is not dead. A demon that old, that clever, cannot be killed—only delayed.
