About this ebook

Allan Carpenter escaped from hell once but remained haunted by what he saw and endured.

He has now returned, on a mission to liberate those souls unfairly tortured and confined.

Partnering with the legendary poet and suicide, Sylvia Plath, Carpenter is a modern-day Christ who intends to harrow hell and free the damned.

But now that he's returned to this Dantesque Inferno, can he ever again leave?

Ratings and reviews

The story of someone without hope, finding his way through hell to discover his own path of self forgiveness. Every page is a sad reminder of how much we need to give our lives to God and free ourselves from sin and arrogance that we can make it in life alone.

Excellent read!

Awesome work indeed
