The Snake Handler’s Wife

When photojournalist Lucy Vega’s war correspondent significant other, Michael Burleson, suddenly takes a job in Iraq, Lucy is left alone with their young child on her isolated California ranch. Michael’s unstable daughter shows up hoping to meet her baby half-brother who is Lucy’s 4-year-old son, Henry. Despite Michael’s warnings, Lucy hires the girl to help care for the child. Weird things begin happening-Lucy’s beloved horse is bitten by a rattle snake and animal enclosures are vandalized. Lucy doesn’t know the daughter has fallen under the spell of a sexy, snake-handling religious cult leader who will do anything to get Lucy’s ranch and her son.
