Ready Meals deliver driver Aaron Rogers has spent years traveling the mountain roads of Baker County, North Carolina, and has grown accustomed to working with the aging and infirm. But there is something strange and unnatural about the old man who lives at the end of the dirt road, up in Carver's Hollow; something that terrifies Aaron. When another driver goes missing in the area, Aaron becomes convinced that the old man is somehow involved. When the local police dismiss his concerns, Aaron tries desperately to find proof, and turns to Hannah Duncan, the young social worker assigned to the old man. With Hannah's help, he soon learns that there is something much darker and more frightening at work in Carver's Hollow than he could ever have imagined. And as people begin dying, and fear grips the community, Aaron and Hannah are drawn into an epic struggle to protect the world from an ancient, unspeakable evil; one they must convince a modern world to believe in...before it's too late.
