Tracing The Devil

Nigsummu was always going to be different. Fathered by a demon and born to a whore, what chance did he have? With no soul of his own he sucks the very life force from his mother, absorbing hers, and ends up being abandoned in the desert. Suckled by a jackal for the first days of his life he is then adopted by a poor hunter and his family, But his is not to be a normal life. Leaving home at fifteen he explores his ancient world, finally reaching the coast three years later. From there he is taken across the Mediterranean to mainland Europe, where his voyage of discovery begins. His journey is not only personal, discovering his sexuality, his identity and how difference is a matter of perspective, but he also learns much about the human condition.
