The Blue Ridge Mountains of Southern Appalachia are ancient. They are older than the Rockies, older than the Alps.

The Blue Ridge was old when the Himalayas were in their infancy. Beautiful, enchanting as is a Venus Flytrap to an unsuspecting fly, but there is a horror bellied deep in the serenity in those rolling blue hills of southern Appalachia.

A story of backwoods mountain culture; of a snake handling, strychnine drinking pastor, who rises to power over his devoted flock.

Of a Native American curse, confining an even older civilization of cannibal cave dwellers to within the boundaries of a mountain gorge, hidden deep in the backcountry of the five hundred thousand acre Pisgah National Forrest.

Nathan Mires is drawn to this place, as a moth is helpless to the magnetism of a glowing porch light. His life has fallen to pieces; something has taken control of him, causing a murderous rampage, which has led him to flee into the backcountry of the Pisgah, seeking refuge from a crooked, spiteful sheriff.

Soon after he arrives in the gorge, he discovers his problems have only just begun.
