The Cornfield
It's just another stormy night at Jake and Mallory's place. Wind, rain, thunder, and lightning shake the old farmhouse. Strange lights and sounds hail from dark clouds. And something drops into the cornfield.
Jake and Mallory's marriage has its flaws, much of it stemming from Jake's gambling addiction, but their love has sustained them through the worst trials. Counselling and group therapy are helping them to rebuild trust in each other. Now they are providing the venue for their best friends' wedding and renovating their home in anticipation of a new baby. Just as things seem to be perfect, anxiety-prone Mallory witnesses something strange in the night sky. Thinking it must be her imagination, she keeps her discovery from Jake. When she finds an unexpected object on their property, it leads her to question Jake's honesty and the state of their marriage.
But Jake has other worries besides keeping his wife happy. Drugs, the cops, a missing friend, the bodies. Casino owner Dom still has a hold on Jake, even though he has repaid his debt. When Jake discovers clues on his property that tie him to a murder victim, he suspects he might be accused of one nasty crime. Caught between Dom's demands and the cops' suspicions, Jake struggles to keep his cool and carry out his responsibilities to family and friends.
Unless he can win Mallory's complete trust and count on her help, Jake could face life in prison. Or it could be the end of his life. Is Jake and Mallory's bond strong enough to withstand the mounting evidence against him?
