An incredibly creepy mystery horror about Rogarou. Joan’s husband Victor has been missing for almost a year when she stumbles into a revival tent and spots him. She is hungover but knows it’s his even when he insists not to know her. He is Eugene Wolff, bringing Jesus to the Métis but Joan knows there is more going on and is determined to get her husband back.
This definitely didn’t have a satisfying ending for me but the journey was good, I hope it gets a sequel!
