Yeah, you can find it here It's 3.0 format, though, and it has only arcane spells (we had too many total spells, so our publisher made us split them into arcane and divine; Divine Strife was intended to be next, but was never released). I'll do you one better: here's a copy of Mystic Strife, the never-released 3.5 version. It combines both books and adds a crapload of content. Since it'll never see print, I figured someone might appreciate it.

Does this still exist?

Shame. Would be worth collecting. It's full of necro stuff.

What tier would a handicap be if it enabled even a mere mortal to summon you or banish you at their whim?
You have no way to prevent this aside from killing anyone who knows the trick to summoning and banishing you.
It can be done at any time from any locale (physical, planar, or otherwise).
It takes only a free action to do.

I peg it as Cosmic, because it enables the summoning and banishing of a god against their will with no save, no immunity, no resistance, etc., but I could see an argument for it being transcendental or even merely divine.

I will never allow this as free action but more as an occult ritual. For the level, as a free action I will say Transcendental. For occult ritual I will say divine

Beetlejuice had this handicap in the movie. It got me thinking of using it for gods.

How would you restore the quintessence of a slain deity? When a deity is slain, it loses all of its quintessence.
