It all started the night of Dalton Walsh's revival meeting, when the earth beneath his tent trembled with a kind of vengeance. It was as if some force from beyond knew about the terrible crimes that had transpired in this little town and finally wanted to reveal the evil that lived there. Then the sightings began. All those lost, almost forgotten children; kids who hadn't aged a day in all the years since their disappearance, like the teenage boy who still wore the same clothes he'd last been seen in, or the golden-haired little girl who still clutched the same doll. Now in the course of a single night, the children will reveal the terrible truth that the town couldn't keep secret, and there'll be hell to pay.
