Receiving a chilly reception from his estranged uncle, Terry wonders if perhaps the move had been a big mistake.

Then, during a stormy night, Jed is found dead in the garage, and a pistol, once belonging to Terry's father, is discovered not far from the body. Suddenly, dark secrets long buried slowly rise to the surface with shocking revelations, and Terry is caught up in the middle of a sinister web.
