    About this ebook

    In the remote farmlands of Kiliwik - early Kansas-
    Hell itself has come to town…

    It is the year 1820-
    and farm boy Tom Miller-born of a supernatural event- is becoming aware of the otherworldly gifts bestowed upon him.

    Shy and ever fearful- especially for the giant dead tree looming in the cemetery across from his bedroom window, he is taught the ways of his powers by an elderly shop owner in town.

    When an evil plague in the form of a half-human comes to destroy him, Tom must learn to accept himself and summon all…

    To save himself, his town, and everything he knows and truly loves.
