Publishers Description: William Peter Blatty has thrilled generations of readers with his iconic internationally bestseller The Exorcist. Now Blatty gives us Dimiter, a riveting story of murder, revenge and suspense. Laced with themes of faith and love, sin and forgiveness, vengeance and compassion, it is a novel in the grand tradition of Morris West's The Devil's Advocate and the Catholic novels of Graham Greene.Dimiter opens in the world's most oppressive and isolated totalitarian state. Albania in the 1970s. A prioner suspected of being an enemy agent is held by state security. An unsettling prescence, he maintains an eerie silence though subjected to unimaginable torture. He escapes - and on the way to freedom, completes a mysterious mission. The prisoner is Dimiter, the American 'agent from hell'. The scene shifts to Jerusalem, focusing on Hadassah Hospital and a cast of unusual characters. All become eneshed in a series of baffling, inexplicable deaths, until events explode in a surprising climax.Told with unrelenting pace, Dimiter's compelling, page-turning narrative is haunted by the search for faith and the truths of the human condition.
