Retired NOPD homicide detective, Joseph Smith, is led to the bayou by God. Little does he know he's walking into his own personal hell. Money and greed are no strangers in the south—especially when the Cajun mafia is involved—and Joseph never dreams starting a church in a sleepy bayou parish can lead to murder. But it's the betrayal that has the ability to steal his soul like death never could, and he learns that redemption is sometimes best earned through the blood of evil.
