Synopsis
Nell Ingram draws power from the earth. After training at the PsyLED academy, the agency that handles paranormal crime, she returns to Soulwood, the land she farms, and finds it sick and restless. She and her team, led by agent Rick LaFleur, look into what is wrong. The sickness begins to spread beyond her property, and the team uncovers an entity that feeds on death. Nell has to balance her new job with her duty to the land and the people around it. The case tests the bond between her and the team and what her unusual power can do.
