Quote1 And you, Jack Boniface-- do you think you're too young to be a sinner? Do you fight? Have you cheated at school? Have you had unclean thoughts? The devil wants you to covet loud rock & roll music -- and fast cars -- and motorcycles. Quote2
-- Minister C.S. Talbot

Synopsis[]

On his road trip, Jack encounters Virgil, an old hermit who lives in a country shack surrounded by crosses.

However, Shadowman finds that the leader of these locals is not so easily defeated, and that Virgil wants no help from the nightime vigilante.[1]
