This chilling suspense novel will take you to a gothic place. In the late 1950s at a convent in Northern England, a young nun is seduced and raped by a demon disguised as an angel. 

Sister Jane’s life story is told through her journals, which provide a glimpse into her troubled soul. Her words also reflect a repressive church, which is mirrored in the strict moral codes of the time.

To escape the Dangerous Angel, Jane is forced to undergo an exorcism to free herself of his demonic presence. After suffering a breakdown, she is committed to an asylum.           

 Jane leaves the church to begin a new life in Paris, where she takes a lover and cuts all ties with her past. Then the ex-nun discovers she is pregnant. She leaves for Annecy in the French Alps to have her child. 

Jane becomes convinced she is being stalked by a demon who takes on human form. Her journal reveals that she was pregnant in the convent, but that the baby “disappeared”. The authorities don’t believe her and accuse her of murder. 

With her recent commitment to an asylum, will Jane be able to convince the police that she is innocent? And where is the baby? You will wonder just who is really sane.
