Hugh Donlon is a lonely, tormented priest who falls in love with a nun, leaves the clergy, and returns to the temptations of secular life. The story focuses on the pain of choice and how faith, love, and vocation clash with the demands of contemporary life.
Ascent into Hell belongs to the Passover series, of which it is the second instalment, and is framed within Catholic-themed fiction.
Aimed at readers of contemporary fiction interested in stories of faith, priesthood, and moral conflicts.
