A blue Volvo makes its way through the fading light this chilly winter evening in upstate New York. Kim, George, and their eight-year-old son, Miles, are city dwellers stealing a weekend away at a friend’s country farmhouse. But a fluke accident sets off a chain of events that alters their lives forever and conjures up the ferocious spirit of the Wendigo, a myth made manifest in Miles’ imagination.
