The Other Aevum

Lights in the sky. A body on the shore without a head or hands. A girl missing from the college up the coast.

Detective Evelyn Vale of the Sheriff's Department is tasked with the investigation. Young and still new as a detective, Vale is determined to see things through with the assistance of her mentor, the old-school Sergeant Sedgewick.

When the murder investigation yields cryptic clues that suggest cult involvement, Vale brings in religious studies professor Hugh Burke to consult. Burke, himself experiencing a crisis of faith, is joined by his student, Kira Moreland, the sister of the missing girl.

The investigation forces each of them to confront the paths of their own lives, and unveils dark practices kept hidden for generations - practices which threaten to bring forth a darkness unseen in three centuries.
