Keith Lafleur,
Louisiana’s largest and greediest building contractor,
thinks he’s cut
the deal of a lifetime. The huge old, two-story, clapboard
house is his
for the taking as long as he can move it to a new location.
It’s too
big to move as it is, but Lafleur’s solution is simple:
divide it in
half. He has no idea, though, that by splitting the house
he’ll be
dividing a family — a family long dead, a family that still
exists in the
house, including a mother who will destroy anyone who keeps
her apart
from her children.
