In the early part of the 21st century a new religion begins to recruit followers, men and women left cold by modern society who flock to The Spirit of Nagasaki. This movement provides them with support and a God-given meaning to their days, but behind the welcoming embrace a trio of cult leaders have their own ideas, about exploiting lost souls and realising their ambitions, causing death and havoc when everything they have built comes crashing down.
Equal parts drama, mystery and thriller, the story of the rise and fall of a religious cult is told in flashback through the major players as events degenerate towards murderous destruction. Meanwhile Special Investigator Joe Sweeney attempts to pick up the pieces, pulling together evidence and tracking down suspects through the aftermath of the crimes.
A compelling and timely study of evil’s slow progress, The Spirit Of Nagasaki touches on the darkest of our collective fears on its way to a truly devastating climax.
