Based almost a century before Dream Master, this, another tense, psychological horror novel is centred upon Ethan, who after surviving the dry and treacherous plains of Colorado, finds consolation in an isolated village on the Kansas border. As he learns that all are suffering from drought, he tries to help one family, but underestimates their intense religious belief and the Preacher that governs them. Forgetting his corrupt past, he believes he can summon rain and rescue the girl he loves but is all what it seems?
