Written by one of the Church's foremost experts on the topic, "Interview with an Exorcist" is based on Fr. Jose Antonio Fortea's years of work as an exorcist, his extensive investigations of cases of suspected possessions, and his attendance at hundreds of exorcisms.

The author describes the nature of the work in the Introduction: "I have chosen to write this book in a style based loosely on that of an ancient scholastic tract - that is to say, a work composed of a series of questions of similar length and different theological weight - while at the same time reading like a modern interview."
