- Summary
- The Andersons left the town at the edge of the swamp long ago, never meaning to return. There was something not quite right about the vast cruel lowlands of Villejeune... something murky, menacing, hostile... an influence too malevolent to be natural. But the Andersons' dream ofo a new life in Atlanta faded away with Ted's lost job and sixteen-year-old Kelly's emotional problems. Now, hoping a change of scenery might help their troubled daughter put her life back together, Ted and Mary Anderson have decided to come home. Home to Villejeune. But something waits for them. Something evil. Far form the prying eyes of civilization, beyond the reach of human law, a mysterious unknowable society lives by its own rules. They have their own customs, their own ceremonies and blood rites -- dark rituals of altars and infants, of candle, spirit, and knife. Now the Andersons' return has completed a circle of destiny begun long ago. Now they must face a deadly drama of unholy ceremony and secret horror, of ancient greed preying upon young life, of unutterable depravity. For, like the other children of Villejeune -- children without mercy, without tears -- Kelly Anderson is about to be drawn into a darkness so terrible it spares no life, no soul..
