About This Book

A renowned paleontologist vanishes during an expedition into a gloomy, treacherous swamp, and locals find great lanes of crushed trees and enormous five-toed impressions that suggest gigantic, unknown creatures. Reporters and the scientist's young assistant join a posse to probe the morass, and their discoveries unfold into an account of overwhelming, prehistoric forces emerging from the depths and laying waste to the countryside. The tale traces efforts to document the strange phenomena, the confusion and terror they provoke, and the limits of human understanding when confronted with inexplicable, world-altering invaders.
