Absalom Falls, a small town nestled in the mountains of North Georgia, seems like the kind of place where a person could go to for refuge from the problems of our modern world.  At least, that's what Gideon and Jordy Shaw are hoping when they move there to recuperate from their latest adventure.  Assuming the identities of two teachers at Absalom Falls Academy, an exclusive private boarding school, they make friends with Miles Liu and his daughter, Cassie, and enjoy their mundane lives.

However, an unspeakable evil from the distant past is on the move behind the scenes, hidden beneath the tranquility of small-town life, and it is preparing to unleash the forces of hell on earth.
