Book overview

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Alive comes a pulse-pounding horror novel set in 18th century colonial America amid a reimagined French and Indian War, in which a member of the legendary Rogers' Rangers with indigenous ancestry must protect his father's homeland from a vicious, unknown threat. Perfect for fans of historical horror and readers of Stephen Graham Jones, Daniel Kraus and Alma Katsu.

A brutal, gripping tale of courage, loyalty, and sacrifice set in a horrifying 18th-century Colonial America.


Amidst the brutality of the French and Indian War, an officer in the legendary Rogers' Rangers is thrust into a nightmare that will challenge both his leadership and his lifelong quest to leave his father's heritage behind. Lieutenant Geoffrey Rapelje is tasked with guiding a ranger detachment to his birthplace to preserve a fragile treaty between the British and his father's people.

What Geoffrey finds is not the idyllic village of his youth, but a land--and a tribe--ravaged by a vicious, unknown force.

He and his rangers embark on a harrowing journey across a North American wilderness beset by violence, betrayal, and inexplicable terrors. To defeat a genocidal enemy, Geoffrey must embrace a dark truth he has long denied.
