For generations, the small farming town of Chesapeake Station in southern Illinois has harbored a terrible secret. An ancient evil has preyed upon the innocent, while those with the power to stop it have chosen to protect their wealth and influence instead.
In 1995, Nick Ryan, a doctoral candidate in archaeology, arrives in Chesapeake Station to investigate the mysterious disappearance of the Mooka'am, a Native American people who vanished more than two centuries earlier. But his research soon leads him beyond forgotten history and into a nightmare the town has gone to extraordinary lengths to conceal.
Meanwhile, five hours north, the Waters family has settled into their new home along the Red Hook River. What should have been a fresh start becomes something far more sinister as unexplained events begin to haunt their children.
As Nick uncovers the legend of the Inaki, he discovers a terrifying connection between the town's dark history and the events that drove his own father to madness ten years earlier.
Now, to uncover the truth, Nick must confront not only the demons of his past but an evil that has survived for centuries-and the people willing to sacrifice anything to keep it alive.
How far will a town go to keep its secrets?
