When a serial killer is found dead in the woods outside the quiet town of Darville, with scratches across his face and his head impaled on a shovel, Patrick Lahm and Jimmy Frey are called back to Connecticut. Living as fugitives and constantly moving from place to place, it is a call they have been praying for in their tedious search for the monster that started it all and tore their lives apart.
But Darville is not as peaceful as it seems, and the sins of the many cannot remain hidden forever. Patrick and Jimmy quickly realize that, despite their best laid plans, things can go terribly wrong. As darkness descends on the small New England town, the evil that had once brought misery upon the guests of the Kurtain Motel, finds its place amongst the wicked and promises them salvation.
All they have to do is confess.
