Nate Ferrentino and Rachel Jessop are operatives for Department 6, a
private security company, and they're going undercover to expose a new
and dangerous cult. This group has taken up residence in the Arizona
desert, in a ghost town called Paradise. Members worship at the
feet--and in the bed--of its charismatic leader, Ethan Wycliff. On his
orders, they tried to stone a woman to death. And they're implicated in
the disappearance of a teenage girl. To expose the Church of the
Covenant, with its arcane rituals and debauched practices, Nate and
Rachel must pretend to be married. That's the only way they can get
in--but being Nate's "wife" is the last thing Rachel wants. She and Nate
have a one-night history that's just an embarrassment to her now. But
they don't have a choice. Wycliff has to be stopped.
