A father's murder in a spray of gore leaves young Carter Danford not just grieving, but marked. A solitary, unnervingly intelligent crow becomes the silent witness to his tragedies as a second devastating loss turns him into a fugitive, haunted by a violent past he can't outrun. He flees to Uinta, a peaceful Mormon community that promises sanctuary but delivers a new kind of terror. The town's serene facade hides a terrible secret in its forgotten, unhallowed burial grounds where the dead do not rest easy. When the monsters from his past, a clan of ruthless killers, are drawn to the same quiet refuge, their violent arrival threatens to awaken an ancient, terrifying power buried beneath the soil. In a town balanced on the edge of a nightmare, a haunted boy and a band of killers are on a collision course with a force far darker than any of them can imagine.
