"Temple believes one morning two thousand years ago on the road to Damascus the Lord showed Paul a light but I don't think that's all He showed Paul; alongside the light He showed him the darkness and after that every time the light grew brighter the darkness grew blacker so by the time the Lord finished making Paul a saint Paul found himself staring at two worlds -- the world God created of rocks and mountains and flesh and bones but right beside it hovering in the air he was seeing another world of spirits swarming with creatures like Bligh and that's when he sat down and wrote the little half-baked church he'd founded at Ephesus, 'Beware the spirits of the air,' and Temple saw the spirits of the air too..." "Spirits of the Air" sets a series of murders -- that actually happened -- in a fictional southern town to tell a story of the raw violence, malevolence and subtlety of evil.
