In a small town in the American South four unlikely allies investigate a local teen's disappearance. What they discover festering at the core of their community is far more sinister than they could've ever imagined. When Dawson Sumter goes missing, all he leaves behind is a smattering of blood in room 4 of the debt-ridden motel owned by Neera Singh's family. Disappearances like this aren't uncommon in the rural Georgia town of Carrion. Especially during the Cicada Festival, which takes place every thirteen years when a cicada brood returns from underground, shrieking their deafening screams. For Neera, Dawson is another reminder that in this corner of the South the rich only get richer, and the poor - well, nothing good comes their way. Desperate to find out if Dawson is still alive, Neera joins forces with three other local teens.
