“A striking Southern Gothic work.”  — The New York Times 

In a small Georgia town, superstitions and rumors abound. The graveyard, the church, the neighbors, their families—there seems to be a secret within everything, and Avery wants out.

When her once-awkward childhood friend Johnny returns to town as a smooth-talking blues star, raising suspicion he’s made the darkest of deals, a series of secrets emerges to envelop them all.

York Walker’s Covenant unravels truth from myth in a haunting and gripping reckoning with what we choose to believe and what we cannot escape.
