In 2008, a serial killer known as the Cajun Cannibal brutally murders and consumes the flesh of eight people in a small Louisiana parish. With law enforcement closing in on him, he takes his own life before he can face the inside of a courtroom. Ten years later, when forensic psychiatrist Dr Vincent Blackburn discovers he and the Cajun Cannibal are more closely connected than he realized, he begins a case study into the sociopathy behind the killer's grisly deeds, only to find a torrent of small town politics, interracial family dynamics, and whispers of the supernatural muddying once clear waters. When copycat killings begin, Vincent is thrust into the center of it all, putting his life, his family, and his own sanity at risk. As monsters-both figurative and literal-begin to manifest, Vincent discovers that untangling the truth from the lies is only the beginning of his nightmare.
