Summary
The crumbling convent of Our Lady of Mercy stands alone in an uninhabited part of Spain, its six inhabitants devoted to God and cut off from the world. This all changes the day the Mother Superior discovers a suitcase with… air-holes at the entrance. She is to find that the box and its contents are to have consequences beyond her imagining, and that even in her carefully protected sanctuary she is unable to keep the world, or her past, at bay. Some descriptions of sex and violence. 2010.
