In the small, sleepy town of Union, the arrival of a series of unexplained deaths shakes the community to its core. The victims, all seemingly ordinary people, are found with strange symbols carved into their skin, each one more horrifying than the last. Whispers of an ancient curse begin to circulate, and the residents grow fearful of something far darker than they could have ever imagined: the legend of the Demon of Union.
Detective Lila Hayes, recently transferred to Union, is assigned the chilling case. A pragmatic investigator with a sharp mind and a deep skepticism of supernatural explanations, Lila is determined to uncover the truth behind the killings. As she digs deeper, she uncovers long-buried secrets-secrets that point to a disturbing connection between the murders and the town's past. A series of occult rituals, mysterious disappearances, and a sinister local cult seem to tie everything together, but the truth is more elusive than she could have imagined.
