Who is Nathaniel?

For a hundred years, the people of Prairie Bend have whispered the name in wonder and fear. Some say he is simply a folk tale - a legend created to frighten children on cold winter nights. Some swear he is aterrifying spirit returned to avenge the past. And soon... very soon... some will come to believe that Nathaniel lives still-- darkly, horrifyingly real.

For young Michael Hall, newly arrived in isolated Prairie Bend after having lost his father to a sudden tragic accident. Nathniel is the voice that calls to him across the priarie night... the voice that draws him into the shadow depths of the old crumbling barn where he has been forbidden to go...the voice--chanting, compelling---he will follow faithfully beyond the edge of terror.
