A hunter lies dead in a southeast Texas backwater. Part-time fishing guide Tracey Cole and his meth-manufacturing cousin are suspected in the crime, but Deuce River Preserve ranger Addie Derange isn't so sure they've got the right people. There's a new militia in town, her estranged brother is leaving cryptic messages on her phone, and the new owners of the local adhesives plant seem oddly out of place. Has her past followed her to this isolated swamp?

Lorcas Fellken is thirteen when his father gives him a rock for a birthday present. But not just any rock - this one is the cornerstone to an ancient castle. Years later, Lorcas moves to his family's summerhouse and begins reconstructing the castle, one stone at a time. Egged on by a shadow that lives under the stone, he adds layer after layer. But as he builds, the castle becomes more aware - and more malevolent. Lorcas slowly creates something he never imagined, despite the efforts of a mysterious group bent on keeping the castle from being rebuilt. Along the way, he gains surprising powers - for a price. Would the castle have been better left in ruins?
