In the small South Carolina town of Pine Ridge, baseball is more than a sport—it’s a tradition that defines the community. When Billy Caughman, a quiet kid from a blue-collar family, arrives with a once-in-a-generation fastball, legendary coach Roy Halverson believes the team has finally found the player who can deliver one last championship season. But some traditions carry a darker side. During a hazing ritual meant to welcome Billy to the team, something goes terribly wrong. By morning, Billy Caughman is dead. The town mourns its rising star and calls the tragedy an accident. Until the players who were there that night begin to die one by one. As Sheriff Daniel Rooker searches for the truth, Pine Ridge must confront a secret it tried to bury. Because some traditions should have ended long ago.
