In 1945, ten-year-old Ronald Dennison, the son of a backwoods Arkansas preacher, began having profound dreams about religion and a strange red-haired woman. The dreams follow him for decades with the woman sometimes seducing him, other times calling him to become a televangelist, but eventually berating him for his sins of lust. She holds a secret so dark that he dares never admit it, even to himself. The more famous and wealthier he becomes, the more he struggles with his adultery, his fetish, and his shame until his torment can no longer be contained. Staggering revelations challenge everything he ever believed. Will truth bring him the peace he always craved, or will the woman's demands prove more than he can bear?
