With an alcoholic father and a hole in her wallet, Danielle Pryer’s life in the rustic town of Bleakwood goes from bad to worse when her long-lost brother, Bruce, returns from the Vietnam War. While Bruce is being plagued by a mysterious and monstrous mutation, he is also being hunted by an incompetent team of paranormal misfits, which leads to Bleakwood quickly becoming ground zero of a supernatural battle that forces Danielle to choose between everything she holds dear and the fate of the world as a whole.
The Drifter turns Bleakwood into a gruesome hellscape, and the Wardens blame Danielle Pryer for their failure to stop it. But even after suffering major losses, Danielle refuses to let go and decides to confront her blighted sibling all on her own.
