About

In the swamps of 1998 Alabama, something is hunting-and it isn't human.
Game warden Victor Burnette has spent years dealing with armed poachers, drug dealers, and violent criminals across Baldwin County. He knows how to track a man through the wilderness, read a crime scene, and survive dangerous encounters. But when mutilated bodies begin appearing across the remote wetlands of Tensaw, Victor encounters a threat unlike anything he has ever seen.
The victims have been brutally torn apart, their deaths suggesting a predator with extraordinary strength and speed. As fear spreads through the surrounding communities, Victor is drawn into an investigation that takes him deep into the swamp. Alongside Nia Lucas, a brilliant and determined biologist, he begins uncovering evidence of a military operation that was buried years earlier.
What they discover raises a terrifying question: what if the experiment was never destroyed?
While Victor searches for answers in the wilderness, danger is growing much closer to home. His cousin Darius is becoming increasingly involved in a violent cocaine operation, bringing dangerous criminals and escalating street warfare into the Burnette family's lives. Victor must contend with threats from both the criminal underworld and the creatures stalking the darkness.
As the investigation deepens, Victor and Nia find themselves drawn together by danger, secrecy, and a forbidden attraction neither can easily ignore. But every discovery brings them closer to something that may be impossible to stop.
With the body count rising and the creatures spreading beyond the swamp, Victor must uncover the truth before Tensaw becomes a hunting ground with no survivors.
Part Southern Gothic horror, part creature thriller, and part crime drama, this gripping novel explores family loyalty, forbidden desire, criminal violence, buried secrets, and the terrifying consequences of experiments that should never have existed.
In Tensaw, the hunters are no longer at the top of the food chain.
Some monsters hide in the darkness.
Others look just like family.
And in Tensaw, everything is prey.
