A mid-life calamity, an eerie town’s secrets and unexpected second chances….

While stuck in a midlife meltdown with a broken marriage, angry offspring and a crumbling career, Sam Murdoch stumbles upon a long-buried family secret: the grandfather he idolized once shot a man. Desperate for an escape (and some answers), he hits the open road in a beat-up Volvo station wagon with his eccentric college buddy, Godfrey, on a quest for truth.

Their journey takes an unexpected and dark turn in a town called Middlevale. Amid the corn shocks and scythes, Sam is thrown into a face-off with superstitious and maybe unhinged townsfolk and he must fight to find a path forward. Sam’s little adventure to solve riddles about his family history has shifted to something else altogether and may take him to places he never imagined.
