This is a dark, noir-tinged serial killer story set during the Great Depression with a hand-painted artistic style and serious mature themes. The violence, while present, is typical of the crime-thriller genre rather than gratuitous, but the overall tone is bleak and grim. It's best suited for mature teens and adults who can handle psychological darkness and historical hardship.

In the darkest days of the Great Depression, death rides the dust. As apocalyptic storms swallow the Oklahoma panhandle, the broken town of New Hope is gripped by a series of brutal murders.
