For the community of Oscala, New York, the mound has never been dangerous - until now. Something beyond cunning or imagining, something undeniably evil is hiding beneath the mound.

Brian Kelly, a physicist still grieving for the hideous death of his first wife and child, suspects that the shell of reality has been torn to allow this monstrosity in. His pregnant second wife, Loi, is ready to dare anything to protect her unborn son. The tough yet vulnerable Ellen Maas, a reporter, must commit to destroying the beast - or die. Bob West, a cop, will turn to the law of the jungle if it will save his family. They must band together to defeat the evil beneath the mound. Cover art by Rob Wood.
