CHAPTER THIRTEEN
The trespasser didnât relax during the entire drive to Rome. At any moment, the headlights of pursuers could shine behind the old sedan and spell the end of the trespasserâs career.
But there were no lights, and when the trespasser reached the small apartment building that had been home for the past five years, the tension finally slid away.
The trespasser leaned back in the car seat and breathed deeply. Each breath released stress and brought joy.
Once more, the trespasser had won. The evil man was dead. No more would have to suffer at his hands.
The trespasser regretted that flight was necessary before a check of the Olivetta girlâs welfare could be made. It would have been comforting to know that she was all right. The trespasser would have to take comfort in the knowledge that she would be the last.
But not the last of all exorcists. That fight continued, and while victory was sweet, the trespasser tasted it for only a moment before opening the laptop and looking up the next target.
This one was interesting. At one point, he had been considered the greatest exorcist in the entire Church. A little more digging revealed apocryphal accounts of the man banishing most of the greatest princes and kings of hell at one time or another. Then, a little over a decade ago, an exorcism gone wrong had resulted in the death of a young college student and caused a minor scandal throughout Italy. After that event, He had retired to run the parish in Arezzo, a medium-sized city in Tuscany, about an hour and a half north of Rome by train.
A little over a year ago, he had resigned his post in Arezzo. Since then, he had no officially listed duties or assignments, but newspaper articles attached him to several high-profile investigations in recent history. He was partnered with a woman, a former FBI agent.
So he was a detective now. The trespasser wondered if he was still an exorcist or if he had left that life behind him.
Well, he hadnât paid for it, either way. Just because he no longer injured and murdered people didnât mean he was innocent. Justice still hadnât been served for Marta Consuelo.
Yes. This was the one. This Father Emilio Carbone.
