The undertaker, Fenton Breece, has been grotesquely manipulating the dead. Armed with incriminating photographs, Tyler faces a desperate pursuit through eerie backwoods filled with tangled roads, rusted machinery, lost families and witches, and the most compelling Southern Gothic novel of the year.
