This chilling true story of a successful family reveals the hidden reality behind appearances. Colin is a brilliant, handsome, and charming man to the outside world, recruited by both the CIA and IBM. With all his success, the perception was that he had it all.

Alley feels helpless to protect her children from Colin's constant attacks. Then, three mysterious women visit her and promise he will never hurt them again ¾ if she gives them what they want. For the sake of the children, she agrees. The women work their evil and Alley gains immense power against Colin, but finds herself demonically possessed. This horror-filled battle between Colin's insatiable appetite for abuse and Alley's demons will grip you and not let go.
