The House by the Spring

The House family lived on a small patch of land in Missouri. On that land was a spring, which gave life to them for some time. Then one day, everything changed. After a bloody massacre, the family was shattered. As a result, through the battered trials and tribulations of a broken young boy, the surviving son, Johnathon, would eventually carry on their legacy.

The boy, who has since taken a new surname and grown into a prominent man of the town, struggles playing caretaker to a new, "wilder" world. In this trial-by-fire adventure, he is tested by new threats every day. When locals begin to fall victim to an all-too-familiar enemy, John must do what he can to find and annihilate this new threat before there isn't a town left to save.

With a small posse made up of mostly friends and neighbors, John ventures out into the unknown, in search of those responsible for terrorizing those he's come to love and is sworn to protect. Along the way he makes new acquaintances, some more thrilling and impactful than he'd had ever expected.

As he grows closer to discovering the whereabouts of the aggressors, having followed the trail of carnage in their wake, John makes a striking discovery. But is it too late? Whether this cowboy can surmount this last challenge could very well determine whether the town will survive to see the light of day.
