A gruesome discovery—and an ancient evil—emerge in a Pennsylvania town... “A brilliant novel.” —Jonathan Maberry, New York Times–bestselling and Bram Stoker Award–winning author Prayers sometimes land on the Devil's ears... The year is 1964. A construction project in the town of Three Bridges, Pennsylvania, unearths an ancient sewer. Inside is a mystery dating to the nineteenth century: the hidden skeletons of countless infants. As the secrets of Three Bridges begin to surface, an ancient codex is discovered in the attic of a local orphanage. A bible containing writings in Lucifer's own hand. The parish priest and a church handyman set out to discover the truth. But a series of strange visions and horrifying tragedies begin, and the darkest secret of all becomes clear: The town of Three Bridges is marked, and the Devil is coming out to play.
