Irreverent: A small-town Catholic priest kidnaps atheist writer David Ellington with a plan to convert him into a believer: Chained naked to a bed in a small dark room beneath the church, David struggles to free himself from the mad priest’s agonizing tortures while his ex-lover detective searches for him. Together with David’s televangelist father and socialite mother, Lita, David’s best friend, Audra, helps the detective retrace David’s last steps before he went missing. With time running out before David succumbs to the priest’s psychopathic treatment, both David and the priest must reexamine their beliefs and decide whether either is worth dying for.
