Publisher's Synopsis
"Please bury her. We cannot wait another night. Bury her so that this nightmare can finally end!" When the body of a dead woman is brought to Hensham Abbey, Brother David Barnard agrees to provide a burial service. Even when he learns that the woman took her own life, he chooses to let her rest in sacred ground. Soon, however, he learns that the woman's family have not been entirely honest about her death. In a world gripped by fears of an impending apocalypse, Brother Barnard begins to fear that he has made a terrible mistake. The dead woman's grave is quickly torn open, and strange noises begin to plague the abbey. A witch-hunter is in the area, searching for a woman of great evil. By the time he realizes the truth, however, Brother Barnard might be powerless in the face of a terrible power. The Girl Who Threw Rocks at the Devil is a horror story about a man who comes face to face with pure evil, about a woman who struggles to contain her demons, and about a little girl who once made a terrible mistake.
