In the heart of the Deep South, where secrets rot beneath magnolia trees and whispers drift through cracked church windows, a curse has waited... patient, hungry, and bound in blood.
When Ben's father dies, grief cracks open a door he didn't know existed-a door into a world of forgotten rituals, haunted legacies, and the book that holds it all: the Grimoire of Kaz. Ancient, powerful, and alive, it reveals a terrifying truth. Every firstborn male in Ben's family is marked... and time's runnin' out.
Now, stalked by the Shadow People and guided by his no-nonsense grandmother, Bigmama, Bennie must confront the deal that doomed his bloodline-and the ancestor who couldn't finish what he started.
The only way out... is through the dark.
"They don't just come for you, child. They remember you. They remember your daddy. And they remember the deal y'all broke."
