The Disciple

Would you follow him into darkness?

Sister Veronica is back at the Convent; a changed woman as a result of her experiences with the corrupt clergy and the murder she lived through.

Now – more than ever – she has a thirst for righting wrongs, even if it means getting herself into danger.

So, when a two-month-old baby girl is left on the Convent doorstep one night, wrapped up in dirty blankets and placed in an open cardboard box, Sister Veronica steps in to help solve the mystery.

And when she discovers a tarot card left with the baby, she is drawn deeper into the search for the mother.

Sister Veronica sets out on a mission to discover the truth, and in doing so begins to peel back the layers of secrecy and lies. But is she really prepared for what she’ll discover?
