This week, in Eyota, Minnesota, a group of young, drifting restaurant workers form what they call a "family". All of this around a guy they call the "High Priest", who leads this little group, in both physical aggression, and some sort of alleged dark powers. This all comes together on Halloween weekend, following the gifting of deadly knife, and a near murder, or two. By the conclusion of the night, we end up with the horribly mutilated body of a "family" member, complete with odd carvings, and all fingers pointing at the victim's friends. Will a particularly paranoid book on the occult make the court case a sham??

Along the way, we find out that there isn't a lot to do in western Connecticut, that just because you have your own followers doesn't make you a high priest of anything, and if someone tells you that it's time for you to do "the warlock test"... RUN!!
