But when other Pentecostal Pastors start dying under mysterious circumstances, the situation becomes alarming as the media emphasizes the public's accusation of the Roman Catholic Church for being responsible for the murders. Under these bizarre circumstances, as the police goes down a horrendous path of murder, closely-guarded secrets and shocking discoveries in search of the killer, Bekindaka Samuel Ekoko - a second-year student at the University of Buea - experiences a drastic drop in his academic performance as he now finds himself trapped in a most horrific conspiracy. Seeing that his life now hangs on the balance, he embarks on a personal investigation into the matter; and his findings make him cross paths with the police with whom he now works to decipher the mystery of the murders by revealing the evil machinations of a corrupted soul.
