War, escape, and alpine folklore
Set during the First World War, the novel brings a group of Allied prisoners of war from a German internment camp into the remote Alps. Their struggle for survival unfolds amid unfamiliar local customs and whispered accounts of a creature said to roam the frozen mountains. The premise connects wartime captivity and escape with wilderness danger and folk horror, placing the legend of the Sarv alongside the historical setting.

Midsommer meets All Quiet on the Western Front in this masterful blend of mystery, adventure, and folk-horror.
In the midst of the First World War, a handful of allied POWs escape the torments of Germany's most brutal internment camp only to find themselves stranded deep in the merciless wilderness of the Alps.
The locals there are odd, and their traditions ancient. With hushed voices they whisper of a beast that roams the frozen mountains. They call it... The Sarv
