The Redemption
The Redemption | William Peter Blatty
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
THE REDEMPTION opens in the world's most oppressive and isolated totalitarian state: Albania in the 1970s. A prisoner suspected of being an enemy agent is held by state security. An unsettling presence, 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 enmeshed in a series of baffling, inexplicable deaths, until events explode in a surprising climax. Told with unrelenting pace, THE REDEMPTION's compelling, page-turning narrative is haunted by the search for faith and the truths of the human condition.

I've had this ex library book on my shelf for some time so with no challenges or rdg grp pending I gave it a go. Not quite as compelling as the exorcist I still enjoyed this story abt an assassin who escapes torture before landing in Jerusalem however no one appears to know who he is. Much discussion of religion, + a lot of interviews to explain whats going . An ok read.
Hopefully as I'm halfway bk3 in
#joysofjune @andrew65 I may get to 4.
