Isaiah won at Charleston!

We are tickled to death to announce that Isaiah's Rest took first place at the 2013, 6th annual, Charleston International Film Festival in Charleston, S.C. this past week. Thank you so much to those who have been supporting this project. Of particular note, this year's film festival included a table read of the top 10 finalists' scripts. All I can say is, it's like watching a child be born, when someone actually breathes life into your characters and you see them come to life for the first time.

Back Cover

A demon, an unstoppable, unrelenting, Cerberus-like hellhound, lives in the low-country forests of Edisto Island. Uncompromising in its task to protect the occupant of a hidden grave and a deed which rests with its owner, the specter has recently killed the son of the local land baron, William Jeffers. Jeffers, a vile and ruthless man who is feared by all, claims to have ownership of the entire island of Edisto Beach and has murdered to protect that claim as he searches for the one document buried somewhere on the island that can dispute his ownership. That document is a deed from Jeremiah Howard, a 19th century plantation owner who deeded Edisto to the family of Moses Freeman, his former slave, among them Moses’s twelve year old son, Isaiah. A rival plantation owner, Manley Jeffers, William’s 19th century ancestor, murdered the entire Freeman family for the deed but it was soon lost when Manley himself was killed by the same avenging demon that has just killed William Jeffers’ son. Long departed from Edisto, what is left of Jeremiah Howard’s family has now returned to reclaim their ancestral home and with them, twelve year old Kirk Howard who, unbeknownst to his parents, is supernaturally and forever bound to the ghost of Isaiah Freeman and the savage specter that protects him and his secret.
