Saints and Serpents. One

In 1940's Eatonville, Florida, Etta May walks a sacred line between life and death. By day, she is the town's trusted midwife, bringing babies into the world with steady hands and whispered prayers. By night, she is a Rootworker, tending roots, reading signs, and listening when the ancestors speak. When a new minister arrives preaching salvation, Etta feels the shift immediately, the air thickens, the soil turns restless, and shadows linger too long inside the church.
She knows the truth others cannot yet see: the man behind the pulpit is no man at all, but an ancient evil wearing holy cloth. As chaos spreads and fear takes root, Etta must decide whether to remain silent or challenge a force powerful enough to damn the town she loves. With the fate of Eatonville hanging in the balance, Etta May prepares to confront the demon head-on, armed only with her faith, her craft, and the spirits who refuse to let their people fall.
