Most in the town believe the legend of Devil’s Bridge to be a colourful local story; a flight of fancy. Dark deeds can happen anywhere. There’s no such thing as the devil. But when a massive scandal hits the community of Devil’s Bridge, even the most die-hard of sceptics begin to wonder if a devil-like figure is walking in their midst.
