Description: Some wounds never heal. Some come back-to kill you. Scarred in body and spirit, Reverend James Kilpatrick Thomas has accepted a job as pastor of a small community church in Mercer's Bayou, Arkansas. In this peaceful small town, he prays for spiritual renewal-not just for his congregation, but for his own shredded soul. Megan and Brody Wallace also seek personal renewal when they leave their hectic lives in Austin, Texas to live a slower paced life on the bayou. After several painful, failed pregnancies, they hope that they'll find life here a soothing balm. But an ancient evil grows just outside the church cemetery. And after more than a century of sleep, it's ready for a deadly revival of its own.
