William Stark is not the hero type, at least not in his eyes. Awkward and anxious, mental illness and a confused faith keep him from loving the girl of his dreams, and himself. A lack of self-esteem takes him to the depths of hell (literally) to fight an intimate battle between fear and faith.

Will wants nothing more than to feel normal, but when you're from a town nicknamed, The Devil’s Rendition of Sedona Arizona, it's not meant to be. Famous for attracting fire and brimstone preachers, occult psychics, and the fringes of society, Millersville is hiding a history that’s anything but traditional.

With the guidance of a deeply spiritual school psychologist who may be keeping secrets of his own, Will learns to balance his mental health symptoms and work towards normalcy, which is about to be short lived.

A team of paranormal investigators have their eyes on the reluctant Will and his unique abilities. What isn't clear is their deeper purpose for him. Aided with technology developed by the group, Gateway, a Resurrectionist crosses into a world of lost spirits and guides them to the light. William's calling, his purpose, is laid before him. He must fight to conquer his demons or risk becoming one of them, falling into darkness for all eternity.

The Resurrectionist

Mind scrambled for a plan. Time was short. The dark robed beings circled the fire, chanting words in a language unfamiliar to me. 


I looked at the ground, a broken branch laid at my knees. There must be at least ten of these. A broken branch is no good. Think! 


I peeled back the leaves blocking my view; Adam twisted and writhed his muscular body against its restraints but couldn't break their hold. The chanting intensified, from the edge of the woods and behind the tree another figure emerged, dragging a goat on the ground, a noose around its neck, forcing it next to Adam before tying it to the tree. The goat bellowed and tried to kick but its legs were bound tight. I flashed to TV show I once saw. Ancient tribes believed that burnt offerings released the spirit of the animal bound by its flesh.
