There, through the help of his mentor Carl Ketcherside and an intense study of the Bible, Edward begins to challenge long-established traditions and meets his nemesis Don Haloway. However, things really heat up when Edward is hired to research the topic of hell and his conclusions ignite a fiery debate among Christians that continues today.
