In Palmer's horror novel, Tiffany Blair lives in a run down trailer with her mother and her mother's abusive boyfriend. Tiffany takes refuge in the woods only to find a human bone in the ancient Indian burial ground and by moving the bone, she frees a curse. It begins with animals dying which soon are recognized as sacrifices. To end the nightmare, a long-forgotten rite must be performed and to do that will mean a battle between life and death. Eerie and spine tingling.
