In the city, a young recluse picks through rubbish, certain that there is a pattern hidden in it. In the small town of Gideon Falls, a new Catholic priest arrives to find that the last one died in mysterious circumstances. Both of them are about to encounter the Black Barn, a structure that appears in different places and times, and never brings good news.
Lemire, who is very good at small towns and damaged people, supplies the emotional core, and Sorrentino supplies the dread: fractured page layouts, panels splintering into shards and the barn looming like the corner of something too big to see. It is slow-burning, strange and very effective.
