Under cover of night, seven stacked-stone towers, erected by an unknown villain, are sequentially moved to kill innocent residents of a 300-year-old town in New England.

Cliff Abbott, resident state trooper, finds himself out of his league and suddenly overrun by an incompetent team of state police and elected leaders. After a stone tower causes traffic fatalities and another conceals a bomb, Abbott starts to understand that the towers are designed for terror. As the body count climbs, Abbott discovers a connection to the conversion of farmland that would change the town forever.

Set In Stone combines suspense with entertainment, and explores the political and cultural changes threatening this small town's identity.
