Marooned in the ice after a mutiny, five military men are lost in the Hudson Bay sometime before the American Revolution. With few supplies and less hope, they intend to struggle overland through the bitter winter to safety. They think they are alone in this silent winter wilderness. They are not. Something is here. Something has always been here. Something awful and ancient and hungry. It has waited through endless cold years for them, and now it will hunt them down. Contains graphic violence and gore. You are warned not to read it alone. Not kidding.
