Mixed with Pequot myths and colonial history, we are given an ancient being tortured by hidden memories and a desire to be more than the blood thirsty monster he appears to be. Called Devil by those humans who meet him, he is lost, unsure what his true name even is. That is, until he meets Abitha, a woman who has never neatly fit into the roles the Puritans have tried to force her into. After her husband's death, Abitha fights for what little freedom she can grasp, all while trying to resist the temptation of power residing within her that calls every time she brushes paths with the Devil. But the more she sees of him, the more Abitha questions whether he really is the Devil or something else. Something more. As their magic calls to one another, making each other more powerful, they are led on a journey of self discovery that makes them feel whole. With a witch hunt on the horizon and a hidden darkness searching for the ancient one, both of their lives are in danger.
