7 Months: Part One

Every seven years since that fateful day, local residents do unspeakable things to each other. A temporary madness known as the Incident settles in, consuming them, turning the sleepy town of Hardwicke into a village famous for possession.

Local businessman Cable Hardwicke is a direct descendant of the town’s founders. With the unusual skills bestowed upon him twenty-one years ago, he senses the unrest of evil before they strike. But this year promises to be very different. It’s only February, and he’s already sensing signs of a disturbance in the darkness. This Incident promises to be more explosive than all the others.

Investigative journalist Willow Bagley visits Hardwicke with the intention of using the Incident as the subject of her new book. She has always been sensitive to supernatural occurrences, but this time she’s sent in a spiral. As she investigates past Incidents, she learns an archaic secret that connects her not only with the town but Cable too.

Cab and Willow must shed their internal inhibitions and surrender to their mutual desire, unearthing a love that stretches back deep into both their pasts. They alone will form the foundation of a group of men and women destined by fate and passion to fight the darkness originating from the Heathen Stone they unlocked all those years ago.
