Jax pulled the sledgehammer back and up behind him in one circular motion like he had done that before. His teenage muscles were visible in the dark graveyard, dimly lit by the moon and a nine-dollar Walmart flashlight. Whack!!! The large, flat, octagonal head landed once again in the middle of Jeb Tillman's grave marker. That time, the stone had been crushed into several pieces. Carisa Stansfield had no idea that inheriting the largest farm in town and five million dollars included visits from her spirit friend and family, a cold murder case, and her own family thrown into chaos. Her eldest son and the town tough guy destroyed the gravestones of a family of seven who died in 1905, releasing the spirits of the family to visit residents of a small town in the Appalachian foothills. Carisa finds comfort in the spirit of Amelia, the matriarch of the dead Tillman family, but with no help from her abusive, alcoholic husband, struggles to keep her family together. She juggles the problems of her two oldest kids while barely caring for the needs of her two youngest. In the process of her son and the other vandal being encouraged to admit to the vandalism and make things right, several deaths occur, and secrets are revealed.
