Synopsis
Investigative reporter Jason Banning and his fiancee Carrie James receive a chilly reception when they arrive in the small rural community of Hittleton. They are assigned to get a supplement story on sons of the heartland, the direct descendants of the original settlers. Soon they uncover a number of clues that lead them to evidence of a very cold case murder.
The suspense builds when Carrie gets wounded in a suspicious hunting accident. The awkward riddles of Ellie, a backward daughter of one of the pillars of the community, are all Jason has to go on until he discovers a mysterious meteorite on Vernon Hittle's property. Thereafter, Jason will stop at nothing until he reveals the ultimate secret about the patriarchs of Hittleton who are, it seems, miraculously fortunate in their ancestry.
