Complicating the narrator's life is the fact that, over time, he has developed a cordial "relationship" with one of the demons. Complicating matters further is the unexpected arrival of Amalasomtha, a young woman with impossible abilities who claims to have come from the remote--perhaps mythical--country of Idalia. She also claims that, for reasons she does not entirely understand, she has been tasked with capturing one such demon and returning with it to Idalia. The truth, it turns out, is considerably more complex. Amalasomtha's arrival sets in motion a chain of events encompassing murder, magic, deception, and an array of unintended consequences.-- $c From publisher's website. 650 0 $a Brainwashing $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Demoniac possession $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Paranormal fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220517010413.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2452275AD34B11EC89B31A4336ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
