As the stakes rise, friendships are tested and loyalties shift, putting Jack in ever greater peril. The tension builds, leading to a heart-pounding climax as he confronts the very devils that linger in Bakersfield's shadows. This mystery is not just about solving a crime; it's about understanding a town that’s as much a character as the people who inhabit it.
