Welcome to Sundown, Arizona. On its surface, it's just another sun-scorched desert town. But evil dwells here...
A Blade to Silence the Screams
In the aftermath of a deadly house fire, the young survivor tells a chilling tale. The Devil kilt my auntie and uncle. Kilt them with his claws then set hellfire to the farmhouse. Deputy John Pierce sets out to unravel the mystery and finds an unsettling pattern of housefires with no survivors. Is there a madman murdering folks and covering his tracks with flames? Or is there something more sinister at play?
There's a shadow over Sundown, and it carries a blade.
After Sundown
Two years after the events in A Blade to Silence the Screams, evil returns to Sundown. Sheriff Armstrong is found dead with a terrible message for young Deputy Billy Snow written in blood. Snow calls upon his old friend and mentor, John Pierce for help.
Pierce, retired from being a lawman and living the quiet life of a farmer, agrees to assist. What they find goes beyond the purview of the law and they enlist the shaman from a nearby reservation. Ghosts from Billy's past have come to Sundown, but are they human?
