Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
A New Orleans detective falls prey to a malevolent Voodoo Priest who caters to the city's wealthy elite in this dark supernatural thriller. When down on his luck detective Jesse Bookman apprehends a vicious criminal, he quickly becomes a local celebrity. As a reward, his captain gives him a much-needed vacation. Meanwhile, scheming Bocor Lamar Davis sets his sights on Jesse while profiting off of rich locals with an interest in Voodoo. Due to his hero status, Jesse will be the perfect human sacrifice to seal Lamar's deal with the devil. But when Jesse's partner Mac discovers evidence of the Voodoo Priest's plan, he teams up with Jesse's father to save the day, and comes face to face with a powerful evil that threatens to destroy them all.
