Putnam, CT is a small town just like the thousands of other small
towns across the country. This one is
the home for many people who have sought to escape the pressures of big cities
for a friendlier and slower paced lifestyle; a lifestyle that also brings
certain freedoms. These freedoms include the Wiccan traditions, witches, and
the use of magick. The coven members of the town council use their magick in
positive ways to help the town prosper...until the murder of one of their shop
owners.
As the town council searches for the truth behind the mysterious
death they uncover disturbing secrets about the warlock, an ostracized coven
member, and their own coven leader, making it unclear which one may have been
involved in the use of black magic and to murder. Meanwhile Bob Whitworth, a
man attempting to escape his own nightmares of the past takes possession of the
recently vacated shop and he unknowingly purchases a talisman created to
control his actions, specifically to have him commit a murder.
Chief of Police Martin Daniels uncovers information that Bob
didn't pick this town at random, but was summoned by witchcraft either by their
own coven leader or the mysterious warlock. Either way, Bob becomes the vital
part in a race to end the mystery which may cost him his life and banish him to
servitude in the underworld of the dead.
