The practice of satanism, with its alleged link to the ritual abuse of children, is one of the more disturbing stories to hit the headlines over recent years. Far from being limited to a tiny clique of hardened fanatics, the occult practices of witchcraft and black magic are beginning to pervade a far greater cross-section of the community - and lives are being corrupted and destroyed in the process. In this book, the author discovers how insidious the occult in Britain is today and also looks at the way in which the authorities and the church are fighting back.
