Summary:
"New Fraternity, Indiana, 1863. An experimental utopia shelters itself from the Civil War that rages across the young nation. Built on the twin ideals of equality and individuality, this simple colony finds itself on the brink of failure, waking old demons both literal and metaphorical. The discovery of a feral child living in the woods gives rise to legendary fears of a devil sent to punish the town for its sinful ways. But could it be that their punishment will come unknowingly by their own hands? A haunting tale of hubris and humanity..."-- Provided by publisher.
