Summary: When their child is stillborn in Rome - on the 6th day, of the 6th month, at the 6th hour - Robert Thorne, an American diplomat, and his wife Katherine are devasted. In his despair, Thorne exchanges his dead baby for one born at the same time. They unwittingly enter a bargain with the devil that culminates in a series of gruesome 'accidents' by a child that, one day, may destroy the world.
