Montreal, January 1836. A book rocks the city: it recounts sordid tales of fornication between the Hospitaller Sisters of the Hôtel-Dieu and the Sulpicians, evoking desecration, murder, and debauchery. High society is in an uproar, and the bishop must defend the reputation of his diocese.
Montreal, September 1892. A mass grave of children is discovered on Le Royer Street. Then, the mutilated body of a banker is found in Griffintown, and two little girls bearing terrible signs of sexual abuse are pulled from the river near de la Commune Street. The three cases seem unrelated until an elderly priest gives Joseph Laflamme a copy of the 1836 book, hinting that history is repeating itself.
