One dark October evening in the defunct churchyard, they find a hole that wasn&rsquo;t there before. A fresh, open grave where no grave should be. But who dug it, and for whom?

As they trail him through the night, they realize he may be the key to a string of strange happenings around town that have made headlines for the last few weeks&ndash;and that they may be closer to the mystery than they thought.
