Dark Places of the Soul: Dark Soul Trilogy - Book 1

By Paul Donaldson

Deny your sin and feed its hunger.

A sharp breath of the winter’s night slipped through the somber group. Abner rubbed the palms of his hands together trying to generate warmth. He turned away from the yawning mouth of stone, now the tomb of a demon. “Now we must close this gateway to hell and make certain it is never opened again.”

Thirty-eight years ago they killed it, sealed it in a tomb within the earth. Only evil never dies... completely.
The darkness has called to itself, Apathy, Lust, Greed and Pride. It will feed its hunger on the denial of their sins.
The darkness has called one who will feel its caress,one who seeks righteousness while tasting the decadent. She is its herald.
