Father Luke's Journey into Darkness shows the struggles of a fictional parish in Washington, DC, when their parishioner, Father Luke, fights against another priest who is trying to sexually abuse a child. The novel captures the difficulties and drama of alerting Catholic and legal authorities before the Catholic sexual abuse crisis was widely known. Father Luke joins with other priests to get the attention of the Vatican and police to stop abuse of a child. On the way to seeking help, Father Luke turns to Ignatius of Loyola and others to seek wisdom and discernment.
