Jon Paul Gordon loses his wife to an auto accident. There is no way
he can get over her while still living in their house, in their
hometown. She was the love of his life, and now she's gone. Jon
Paul escapes, moving to Appleby, a remote town in West Texas. Even
so, he finds that he needs the help of the liquor bottle to quiet
his mournful mind as he does his best to go on without his beloved
Dahlia.
He makes a new, devoted friend in Homer: a wandering,
odd-looking dog. Through Homer, Jon Paul meets the local
veterinarian, Dr. Nancy Reyna. Nancy lost her husband to a hunting
accident years before, and the two build an immediate bond. As Jon
Paul settles in, though, things get weird. Animals have been
turning up dead, and now neighbors are seeing strange shadows in
their backyards.
There are devious forces at work in Appleby, and they seem to
want to communicate with Jon Paul. They prey on the weakness of his
alcoholism and on his devotion to new friends. Jon Paul may be
willing to lean on these mysterious, alien beings, but he must keep
them secret before the animal attacks stop and humans become their
next target.
