It was a bright spring in 1908. Newlyweds Rob and Maude Martin were beginning their marriage on a new farm in central Illinois. Although their future seemed so bright, they could not know all that was yet to come.
On a small corner of the Martin farm stood a slightly tilted two room tar paper shack. It was the meager home of a crude, mysterious drifter named Henry Dingeldine. Although he had no legal standing to the land or shack, Henry was permitted to work on the Martins’ farm.
But there was more to consider. In a tall elm tree near Henry’s shack lived a large thick billed raven. Henry had named the raven Noah. The raven became both a friend and a source of amusement to Henry. Noah also became both an instrument of horror and finally of retribution.
Then enters a figure from Henry’s past; a dark sociopath who was the very essence of evil. All would be deeply marked by the events that followed. Indeed, some did not survive.
