Waynoka is a small city in Oklahoma that is all but forgotten by the rest of the world. Their crime rate is one of the lowest in the country do to its unusual diminutive size and conservative citizens. The most action they see is an occasional speeding ticket or disorderly conduct. It is the perfect little boring hole in the earth for those who lead a likewise life.
However, the city was turned upside down one fateful morning when news spread quickly of the accidental death of their most beloved resident—from the hands of a fourteen-year-old girl named Dawn Holloway. The people of Waynoka demanded swift justice, even though it was a misfortunate accident. Before Dawn realized the severity of the situation, everyone was against her and her family’s wellbeing. They cursed the very ground they stood upon.
Just when it appeared the city was returning to its normal dull nature, it happened. Dawn Holloway disappeared without a trace, other than her blood which was splayed across her destroyed bedroom, the scene of an apparent atrocious crime. The dark side of this mystery, no one seemed to care, and at times—not even her own mother.
The city was content with its new population: minus one, and it was ready to move on to start a new. But one particular person, the sheriff to be exact, would not give so easily. The more he dug, the darker the case became, and he soon realized the cozy little city he called home for his entire life is an eerie hell filled with monsters that look like you and I.
