In the dying mining town of Sun Valley, Zeke Hawthorne is a man broken by loss and struggling to survive. The once life-giving sun now beats down relentlessly, warping the land and the minds of its people. When a charismatic preacher arrives, claiming to offer salvation from the unyielding heat, Zeke is drawn into a web of manipulation and dark promises. As strange disappearances plague the town, Zeke uncovers a horrifying secret-the preacher is the vessel of an ancient, malevolent force, a demon who seeks to remake the world in fire.
With the town's fate hanging in the balance, Zeke must decide whether to fight against the unearthly power that is slowly consuming everyone around him or to give in to the madness himself. As the lines between salvation and destruction blur, Zeke faces a terrible choice-save the last remnants of humanity or watch as everything he knows burns to ash.
But who is this preacher, really? And what is the true nature of the force that controls him?
The sun is no longer a symbol of life. It is a threat. And Zeke is running out of time.
Can he stop the demon's rise, or will he too be consumed by the fire? What would you do if the light that once gave you hope became your greatest enemy?
