You will not give me alms.

My life shall be a stel parad.

A numb parade of days.

I curse this place.

Chicago: 1845. I&M Canal gravedigger Enda Hughes buries a hanged man on Suicide Hill. A priest dies of a sudden heart attack.

When a curse is found pinned to the church door from a stranger claiming he was denied alms, it sets off a chain of mysterious events that begin to plague the town of Keepataw.

When the canal foreman alerts Enda to an order of phantom monks seen wandering the cemetery, it calls everything she and her apothecary husband, Keir, know into question.

As revengeful deaths, ancient visions, sinister monks, and visitations from unsettled spirits plague their town, the Hughes and encamping Native American tribe must use their medicine and magic as a barrier to save themselves from the unholiest of brotherhoods.

Industry Reviews

"poetic and idiosyncratic... Readers who enjoy seemingly impenetrable puzzles will find plenty here to unscramble..." - Publishers Weekly

"incredibly evocative...brilliant." - Matthew Bird, Producer (Fortitude / The Musketeers)

"A workman piece. Like something from David Mamet meets Wong Kar-Wai." - Tom Burstyn, Cinematographer (Hell on Wheels)

"A very powerful story! The fact that it is inspired by real events that occurred during the construction of the I&M Canal in Chicago makes it even more disturbing..." - Giovanni Bonura, Film composer (Reliving Marilyn)

"Spellbinding..." - K. Cornell Kellum, Chairman & Founder, UBIQUITY Entertainment Corp
