Dr. Nathaniel B. Smythe, Doctor of Psychology and engineering. Philanthropist and investor. Grandson of one of the town's founders and confirmed bachelor. General Franklin F. Fremont, retired general in the army. Explorer and big game hunter. The two men, stalwart friends in a small industrial town on the banks of the Susquehanna River where nothing changes, and excitement is discouraged. On the surface, anyway. But there is something rippling beneath the sleepy little town's gentle façade. It's been there for as long as anyone can remember. No one talks about it, not even in subdued whispers, but it touches the lives of every resident...including the two friends. And when Dr. Smythe reveals one of his secret inventions to a bored General Fremont, Hell breaks loose in the form of a demon from another dimension. The two are forced to hunt the creature before it can wreak havoc on the town, they both love. It won't be as easy as they think. The doorway they open is but the beginning, and even more horrors wait for them and the rest of the town. This is life on the river. This is life for residents who will do anything to achieve their goals. If the town accepts you, it will give you anything you can dream. Even if the dream is a nightmare. Welcome to Milltown.
