Art West is in hot water in more ways than one in this latest adventure. After bathing in the thermal springs at Pamukkale, Turkey, the intrpid Bible scholar and archaeologist is invited to join an excavation at nearby Hieropolis. A papyrus related to Papias, the noted secony bishop, has been discovered. However, demons unleashed by a cursed papyrus found in a menorah by Art's friend, the antiquities dealer named Khalil, are poised to attack. A visit to the Plutonium proves to be a real gas for Art, who must now discover the diabolical forces seeking to kill him.
