Small Plains, Kansas, January 23, 1987: In the midst of a deadly blizzard, eighteen-year-old Rex Shellenberger scours his father<U+2019>s pasture, looking for helpless newborn calves.

It is a moment that will forever change his life and the lives of everyone around him. The mysterious dead girl<U+2013>the “Virgin of Small Plains”<U+2013>inspires local reverence. In the two decades following her death, strange miracles visit those who faithfully tend to her grave. But what really happened in that snow-covered field?

Why do the town<U+2019>s three most powerful men<U+2013>Dr. Quentin Reynolds, former sheriff Nathan Shellenberger, and Judge, Tom Newquist<U+2013>all seem to be hiding the details of that night?
