When twenty-two-year-old Zeke Taylor returns to the Bottom-a forgotten Black neighborhood steeped in poverty, pain, and silence-he only wants to keep his head down and protect his younger sister, Nova. But the land has other plans.
Nova, quiet and strange since birth, begins having visions. Ghosts whisper in her ears. Names of the dead spill from her lips in sleep. Something buried deep beneath their town is rising... and it remembers everything.
As Zeke digs into the Bottom's haunted history-police raids, vanished families, rituals soaked in blood-he uncovers a legacy of violence tied to their own bloodline. The siblings soon realize that the past was never truly buried. It was bound.
Now, the spirits are restless. The town is cracking open. And Nova may be the only one who can guide them through it-if it doesn't destroy her first.
A tale of generational trauma, ancestral power, and the fight to reclaim what was stolen, Blood in the Soil is a chilling, poetic journey into the heart of memory-where horror and healing walk hand in hand.
