Set in 1980s Atlanta, Georgia, this story follows Sheldon, a Black boy raised in the Hekau Society - a tight-knit community of neo-Kemetics who worship ancient Egyptian gods, read hieroglyphics, and follow sacred rituals passed down for generations. To Sheldon, this way of life is more than tradition - it's truth, beauty, and identity. But when his summer takes a dark turn, he's forced to attend Camp Kemet, a harsh and abusive religious camp that tries to "correct" his beliefs.
Can Sheldon hold on to his faith, identity, and spirit - or will the camp break him?
