The Kinfolk

2017 | Thriller

Along the banks of the Neches river, surrounded by the dense piney woods of east Texas, where the humidity makes even the mosquitoes go a little soft in the head, there’s a pack of liars, thieves, and fools that Mimosa Mabry reluctantly calls family. After a lifetime spent trying to put the place behind her, the Kinfolk come calling, and they want her home.

Against her better judgment, Mo returns, but finds the answer she’s searching for__the truth about a child named Lucy__is farther from her grasp than ever. Because in deep east Texas, at the mercy of your kin, the truth is relative __as enigmatic as a carnival shell game.

And the game is rigged.
